Guided tour to a winery and relaxed Sherry and Brandy tasting straight from the barrel. Introduction to the ancient relationship of the Jerezanos to the wine while walking through the historic center to the bodega (about 15 minutes), visiting places that tell us something about that history. At the winery, we learn first hand everything about the production of Sherry and Brandy. Of course, we also take time to taste these fine wines and spirits, most of them directly in the wine cellar. This tour is designed only for small groups – I prefer a familiar atmosphere.

What To Expect
Become an authentic Sherry expert! Let me take you into the fascinating world of the unique Sherry wines and Brandies, in a small winery in the center of Jerez! You discover with me one of my favorite bodegas that produces Sherry and Brandy. We'll meet in the center of Jerez and during the short walk to the winery (about 15 minutes) I will tell you the most important things about the close and ancient relationship of the city and its inhabitants to the wine, a key part of the cultural identity of Jerez. Then, during the tour in the bodega, a family run business with a long tradition, we enjoy and comment on 5 selected Sherry wines, from the pale straw yellow and absolutely dry Fino to the dark and very sweet Pedro Ximénez, as well as one of the finest Brandies in Spain. All this totally relaxed there between the venerable casks. You will find out everything about the making of these wonderful and varied wines and brandies, directly on-site, a magical world you can touch and in a familiar atmosphere. Sherry is not only a drink but an experience, so immerse yourself in a world of traditions and emotions, of aromas and tastes: an unforgettable experience for the senses!

5.00We had a great tour. We learned about how sherry added to economic development over 100s of years in Jerez and the region as a whole. We learned about the different categories of sherry and we tasted the sherry from the barrels. We also learned about and tasted brandy.
Highly recommended to learn all about Sherry

5.00We had a very nice tour with a short walk through the city and a visit to a sherry bodega with Andreas. Andreas is very competent, nice and patiently answers really every question. We had a wonderful time, learned a lot worth knowing and tasted delicious sherry. Especially great was the small group, so it was a lot of fun. Thank you so much!

5.00Andreas was a highly qualified and experienced guide. He deeply brought us into the amazing world of vines from Jerez (= Sherry). We degustated the very old vines - more than 20 years - directly out of the wodden barrels - marvelous!

5.00Andreas showed us the winery explaining all the processes step by step. It is rating that it is his passion and that he lives it from within. We loved both the visits to the winery and the tasting. With each tasting you discover new flavors and understand why that wine is so special and different from the rest.
Jerez perfecto!

If you love sherry, this is the tour for you! Spectacular day, we learned about how sherry is made, and enjoyed the tasting, loved the tastings! 5 Stars!

Lovely experience of sherry

5.00A very pleasant tour. We met Andreas in a city centre location, then had a relaxed walk for about 15 minutes to the bodega. During that time Andreas told us something about the history of sherry. At the bodega we looked around the premises and tasted five sherries plus one brandy, some of them drawn from the barrel. The tour really helped our appreciation of the drink, and Andreas' English was very clear. I would suggest this tour needs to be better classified in Trip Advisor. It is listed under 'Tours' but not under 'Food & Drink' so would be easy for someone searching for a sherry experience to miss.
