BODEGAS GUTIÉRREZ COLOSIA, Spain
Bodegas Gutíerrez Colosia is the only bodega in Puerto de Santa Maria that is situated along the riverside, which owners Juan Carlos and his wife Carmen claim ensures perfect humidity levels for the development of the fine top layer of yeast – ‘en flor’ – that plays such a critical role in the traditional crianza-solera method of making sherry.
Viticulture
The grapes for Colosia's wines come from areas around Jerez, with the vineyards being planted on very special soil called "Albariza". The soil produces outstanding vines perfect for the production of sherry.
Winemaking
The quality of the Gutiérrez Colosía wines is guaranteed by careful ageing through a process known as "criaderas y soleras" in line with the region's tradition. It is a dynamic system by the so called, "corrimiento de escalas" (or running up the scales) with wines from different crops which guarantees the quality of the sherry wines.
