You will try several wines specific to each region, and 6 VORS over 30 years old in two of the three cellars. You will even try sherry straight from the barrel!

You will visit a cellar (bodega) in Chiclana de la Frontera. This is the perfect place to understand the whole sherry process from when the grapes arrive up to the “bota” (barrel).

We will then head to Sanlúcar de Barrameda. We will enjoy a private tour in a cellar (bodega) here. We will eat lunch here, local Cadiz and Andalusian food, such as “salmorejo”, “tortillita de camarones”, “pescaíto frito”, “gambas de Sanlúcar”, with a drink, in the heart of this beautiful coastal city.

On the way to our last Bodega back at Jerez de la Frontera, we will stop to enjoy the views of a vineyard on its famous Albariza soil and talk about why this soil produces the best palomino and moscatel grapes.

Incredible day! - Our group of 19 agreed that our sherry tasting experience was a highlight of our trip. Carlos is knowledgeable and passionate and shared so much information with us! Not only did we learn a lot, but we had a great time. We were staying in a large house and Carlos took care to set up our dining room for the tasting. He brought in the most delicious food pairings to go with each different sherry. It was an amazing afternoon and without a doubt we will be back again for another sherry tasting experience. (I am sharing some photos taken by Giles from WeddingsbyGiles.com to share how awesome the day was)
