Fino Gutiérrez Colosía fine dry sherry wine 375ml

Fino Gutierrez Colosía

Fino de Gutierrez Colosía is golden in colour, with a sharp and delicate aroma. In terms of flavour, it is dry and light almondy on the palate and has been aged in flor for at least three years. It is obtained through biological ageing, the proximity of the winery to the sea gives it very special characteristics. It has 15º of alcohol. And the type of grape used for its production is the Palomino grape. It is a wine that should be served very cold.

Since 1838, the Gutiérrez Colosía winery has been located at the mouth of the Guadalete River in the Bay of Cádiz. The dry Levante and humid Poniente winds from the Atlantic regulate the humidity of the air, maintaining optimal conditions for the wines, vinegars and brandies.

In addition, the stability and quality of the Gutiérrez-Colosía wines are guaranteed by careful ageing using the criaderas and soleras system. This is done according to the best tradition of the region.

The structure of the cellars is known in the area as the “nave of a cathedral”. They are very tall buildings. They also have numerous arches that expose the wines to the influence of the special climate that the Jerez region enjoys.

In 1969, the Gutiérrez-Colosía family bought the ruins of the Palacio del Conde de Cumbrehermosa -cargador de Indias-, which already had a bodega, and in its place they had two more naves built. The Bodegas Gutiérrez-Colosía are the only ones that currently face directly onto the Guadalete River. This provides the perfect humidity for the biological ageing of the fine wines under the “en flor” veil. In conclusion, this refers to micro-organisms that reproduce on the surface of the wine.
