Today, however, Equipo Navazos’ efforts are increasingly focused on producing their own wines, such as Florpower, which truly express the character of Sanlúcar and its unique terroir. Beyond Andalusia, they have also collaborated with winemakers of the calibre of Dirk Niepoort and Sergi Colet to develop authentic, individual Spanish wines that never fail to impress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white chalky soil of the Jerez area, 'albariza,' is ideal for the cultivation of Palomino grapes which produce the sherry for which Jerez is so well known. With a focus on the old vine vineyards of Mirafloes La Baja, Sanlúcar from which their Florpower wines come from. However, experience has shown them that, in the end, the vineyard always prevails regardless of the intensity and duration of ageing, which is why they increasingly tend to limit the latter more and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title\"\u003eViticulture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith this release. La Bota 116, Equipo Navazos are revisiting the same solera in Montilla from where their releases number 46 and 74 were sourced, the incredible Bodega of Pérez Barquero, where Rafael Cordoba, co-owner of the company, has been controlling their vineyards with exceptional care and nurturing their vintages for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title\"\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLa Bota 116 Oloroso “Montilla” comes from a selection of casks from the Solera Diógenes, located in the third row at the Bodega El Puente. All the casks selected belong to the solera itself. The passing of time and the fact that only small quantities are withdrawn from the casks, explains why this wine is almost five years older than its predecessor, La Bota de Oloroso 74. Its estimated average age is therefore close to 35 years. A master in obtaining truly outstanding musts, both yema (first press) and color (second press), expert winemaker Juan Márquez uses the second press musts, locally called “vino de color” to produce sublime Olorosos. Saca of October 2022, with just 2,700 bottles produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"title\"\u003eTasting Note\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"video-responsive\"\u003eVery fragrant, with a full and complex character, which shows the roundness of the Pedro Ximénez grape.
