I am aware of the Parker reviews and understand that not all the finos or
manzanillas get distributed abroad. But really, many winelists out of Spain
have Lustau as their Sherry. I have just read a Parker review of a Lustau
wine and I read that Lustaus are in the portfolio of Christopher Cannan
(Europvin), a really big negociant from Bordeaux, with interests in many
countries, actually.

But, then, nothing comparable to Valdespino Inocente (or the outstanding
"saca" that has been called "Fino Macharnudo Alto") or "Manzanilla Las
Cañas" which are the real products, even if they are SO difficult to find.
