BODEGAS CESAR FLORIDO
Jere-Sherry, Spain
Bodegas César Florido was founded in 1887 and is currently maintained by César Florido, a descendant of the founder. The winery is the oldest bodega in the town of Chipiona, located near Sanlúcar within the Jerez denomination of origin. Bodegas César Florido is one of only two bodegas in Chipiona that are still operating outside of the cooperative. Chipiona is an area dedicated to growing Moscatel, but most of the wine produced here is sold in bulk to the Sherry houses of Jerez, El Puerto de Santa María and Sanlúcar. Bodegas César Florido, by contrast, is one of the few bodegas that is estate bottling.
