Southwest of Seville, Jerez is a well-heeled place. It’s the home of the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art and its famous dancing horses; if you’re on a budget or can’t be there for a formal performance, it’s worth dropping in to catch a morning training session. The other major reason to visit Jerez is to sample its most famous product—sherry. You can do this at a number of bodegas associated with the world’s best-known brands, including Bodegas Tio Pepe, The House of Sandeman, Jerez, and Pedro Domecq. They’ll soon have you knowing your amontillado from your oloroso. There’s also an Alcázar, dating back to the time of the Almohads, which features a small mosque, now the chapel of Santa María Real.

You need to book before come to our winery. This is a very interesting old bodega, still in family hands, and yet few seem to have heard of it. In 1970 Doctor D. Faustino Gonzalez Aparicio bought some soleras dating to 1789 which had been in the Alcazar and moved them to the bodega of his wife. The bodega is in one of the most interesting old parts of the city, the Cruz Vieja in the Barrio San Miguel.The wines are fermented in barrel
There were only 2 of us and we had a wonderfully relaxing and informative visit to this family run bodega. Our host Jaime was so generous with his time and we had a lovely chat with him over tapas and glasses of sherry. We feel so much richer for the experience and would really recommend it over more touristic bodegas.

The history of the Diez Merito Wine Cellar began two hundred years ago .This house preserves one of the most emblematic Bodegas in Jerez: Bertemati Bodega. This majestic building, dating from 1730 is located in the centre of the city.During the visit to the wine cellar, you can enjoy entering its patios, gardens and areas and tasting five of its faboulous wines.
We booked this tour online having seen some fantastic reviews and were also advised not to go on the tours of the big Bodegas (that's up to you but a little research will tell you why !!) .. Being out of season in February was great as we were the only people on the tour which was brilliantly taken by Valentina who was really really great, friendly and very informative .. can't recommend her highly enough !! And at the end we had 6 different sherries to try along with some fab tapas !! What was supposed to be an hour's tour turned into an hour and half as we were not pressured at all to finish our tasting as we chatted to Valentina about the history of the Bodega, Jerez .. the City and life in general in the area .. thoroughly recommended !!! Ooh and bought a bottle of Fino for us and went back the next day to the shop they have to buy another bottle for friends .. who are connoisseurs and they loved the Fino !! Enough said !!

The beers of La Jerezana are distinguished by their variety (we went to the market with 11 types) and its premium quality. This is possible because processing lots are small (between 20 and 40 liters per batch depending on density or body having the final beer). We compensate this point with a maximum utilization of equipment and good planning and organization of work. The main feature of all types of beers La Jerezana is the softness and lightness in the mouth, regardless of varying body or alcoholic content. Processing methods used (especially heating) to maintain the maximum care and the properties of the raw material used. This lightness, accompanied by a very integrated carbon caressing tongue and soft persistence in mouth, makes the taste of our beers is a unique experience. Another differential and unanimous in valuations of those who have honored us with their visit to the tasting factor is the wide variety of aromas. The ten types of malt, the eight types of hops and yeast four varieties used are responsible for this great range.

I love traditional, old facilities that are still being used by people n the same way as they have been over the decades and this indoor food market is exactly that. It has a superb selection of offering with sections for fruit & vegetables, fresh fish and meat & cheese, plus a stall for purchase of draught sherry. It’s hugely popular with locals and is a great place for shopping or for just experiencing local culture. Churros and coffee are available from a stall in the square outside.

This museum is housed in a beautiful old home, and is worth visiting just to see the building. The displays are well organized and informative. Gives a quick overview of the Jerez region and the growth of the city. Highly recommended.
