Bodegas Barrero

Sanlúcar de Barrameda

Bodegas Alonso

The Asencio brothers set this house up so that what was left of three extinguished Sanlúcar bodegas would not be lost: Pedro Romero, Gaspar Florido and Fernando Méndez. They keep their very old amontillados, olorosos and palos cortados — the Ánsar Real butts are over a century old — and since 2017 have released a manzanilla of their own, Velo Flor, backed by thirteen hectares in Balbaína and Miraflores.

Bodega Alucinante

The wines of José Antonio Palacios, a winemaking technician who has made them in his own bodega in Sanlúcar since the summer of 2019: whites from Palomino and Moscatel, a sparkling wine by the ancestral method and an old fortified wine. He runs tastings for groups or to order.

Bodegas del Río

Since 1990

The vineyard came before the bodega: in the 1920s Ángel del Río bought the Casilla Verde plot, and the house itself was not founded until 1990. For years it was an almacenista to the big firms; now, with seven hectares of its own in Miraflores — the coastal pago held to be manzanilla's grand cru — his sons have been bottling under their own label since 2022.
