The Bodega César Florido, founded in 1887, is currently run by César Florido, a fifth-generation descendant of the founder. In addition to being the oldest winery in all of Chipiona, it is one of the only two truly artisanal bodegas in the city that still operate outside the cooperative, taking care of production from field to table.
In fact, if producers normally sell wine at the Sherry Houses in Jerez de la Frontera, interrupting the production chain, César Florido is one of the very few producers who still bottles their own sherry, produced from grapes owned by the family vineyards and from fermentation spontaneous. Although Chipiona is located outside the Zona de Crianza for the D.O., today the wines of César Florido are recognized among the most unique and personality sherries. The working method both from the agricultural point of view, when from the point of view of the cellar it fully respects our philosophy, making César the only producer of Triple "A" sherry.
In addition to wines from palomino grapes, César Florido also produces moscatel wines, naturally sweet and from Alexandria Moscato grapes which account for less than 2% of the vineyards in the Jerez area. Moscatel musts are so sweet and dense that it is not easy to start fermentation, let alone stop it later, which is why fortification is necessary.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
