Gutierrez Colosia
Oloroso Sangre y Trabajadero Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino


So multi-dimensional. The nose says, "Oh no, this is gonna be sweet, I wasn't prepared for this! Butterscotch, toffee." Palate says, "Mmmm, toasted cashews. Salty dry, and a tad sweet." This wine is like a teeter-totter between salty & sweet. Great pairing with Jamon & Comte. Excellent value.

Good stuff. On the nose, sweet butterscotch caramels. Full on Werthers Original. You think you’ll be getting a mouth full of candy, but on the palate vibrant acidity, dry, candied pecans. So many layers. Great bang for the buck.

Interesting. Haven’t tried much sherry. Lighter body, but higher alcohol. Nice to have a glass.

Lovely oloroso—textbook balance and poise. Salty-sweet equilibrium.
