Gutiérrez-Colosía Sherry Case: 3 bottles each: Fino, Amontillado, Oloroso, Pedro Ximenez, #

Gutierrez-Colosía Fino DO Jerez-Xérès-Sherry
Fino is a style of “biologically aged” sherry, matured under a layer of flor yeast which protects the wine from oxidation while imparting signature baker’s yeast and apple aromas to the wine, as well as a bone-dry palate profile. This is a well-made classic Fino, aged for three years in solera. 2023-2025–JB

Gutierrez-Colosía Amontillado DO Jerez-Xérès-Sherry
Amontillado sherries undergo a period of biological and oxidative ageing, giving them both a very dry character and nutty, tertiary flavours. This smooth, satiny Amontillado has alluring toffee, dried fruit and tea leaf nuances. Its complex, concentrated flavours linger long on the fresh, full-bodied finish. 2023-2026–JB

Gutierrez-Colosía Oloroso DO Jerez-Xérès-Sherry
Oloroso sherries are matured in an oxidative manner, meaning that controlled oxygen exposure is allowed throughout the long solera ageing. This turns the wines a rich mahogany colour over time and imparts intense nutty, earthy, dried fruit notes. This is a weighty, richly layered Oloroso with lovely freshness and enticing toffee notes to balance the earthy, savoury finish. 2023-2027–JB

Gutierrez-Colosía Pedro Ximénez DO Jerez-Xérès-Sherry
Pedro Ximénez grapes are sun-dried to concentrate their flavours before vinification. The fermentation is halted early with the addition of a neutral grape spirit, leaving the wines lusciously sweet and smooth. Deep brown in colour with a heady sweetness ably balanced by fresh acidity. Signature notes of molasses, coffee beans, dried fruit and baking spice delight on the nose and palate. Pour over vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat! 2023-2043–JB
