The Micaela brand has been in the Barón de Sanlúcar de Barrameda wineries for decades, a winery with more than 400 years of history. With the new times, they have gone from a primitive label to one of the most beautiful and colorful designs that stand out on the shelves of wine shops. Floral motifs fill the space, with contrasts of green, yellow, red and pink tones. The capsule continues along the same lines, although with the floral illustration in black and white. The amontillado, the cream and the stick cut from the same warehouse, use the same design with some changes.
