Gutiérrez Colosía Fino Seco

Fino from el Puerto de Santa Maria is called Fino del Puerto. Raised near the Atlantic, Finos del Puerto have a moderate briny character and sit stylistically between Manzanillas and Finos. There are few proper Finos del Puerto left in production.

Gutiérrez Colosía has its vineyards mainly on albariza soils in Jerez Superior (Balbaina Alta, Balbaina Baja and Los Tercios), these are the typical bright white colored soils. Albariza consists of more than 60% lime (calcium carbonate, a remnant from the oligocene – 33 to 23 million years ago – when this area was completely covered with water). When it rains, the soil turns into a thick paste. But when the sun comes through, the soil dries out to a smooth and reflective crust that retains moisture and protects the vines.

This fino is biologically aged, protected by thick coastal flor for over 3 years. Floral, fresh, salty touch, fresh almond and vine. The first taste contact is fruity but bone-dry with a structure that (because of its youthfulness) has a wine-like character. Subtle acid structure, coherent and flawless.
