WINE MAKING PROCESS
La Panesa Especial Fino Hidalgo is produced from 100% Palomino Fino grapes. The base wine is fermented and then fortified to 15% ABV to promote the growth of the flor yeast. It is aged in American oak butts using the solera y criaderas system, with the solera established in 1961. The wine undergoes an extended aging period of approximately 15 years under a thick layer of flor. Finally, it is bottled unfiltered.
