About the winery

A historic house from El Puerto de Santa María, today Grupo Caballero, housed in the medieval Castle of San Marcos. Creator of Fino Pavón and Ponche Caballero.

Founded in 1830 in Chipiona by the Galician José Cabaleiro do Lago, it moved in 1932 to El Puerto de Santa María, where it absorbed the historic bodegas of José de la Cuesta (1849) and John William Burdon (1821). In the 1970s Ponche Caballero became one of the best-selling liqueurs in Spain and Europe. Since the 1990s the group has also included Bodegas Lustau. Its headquarters, the Castle of San Marcos, is a 13th-century fortress that also houses a museum.

Designations of origin

View wineries →

The designation of origin for the fortified wines of the Marco: fino, manzanilla, amontillado, palo cortado, oloroso, Pedro Ximénez, moscatel and cream. It covers ageing under flor and the criaderas y soleras system, and only wineries registered with the Consejo Regulador may use it.

PGI Vinos de la Tierra de Cádiz

View wineries →

A protected geographical indication covering still wines — reds, whites and rosés, neither fortified nor aged under flor — from sixteen municipalities of Cádiz province, inside and outside the Marco. Regulated by the Andalusian government since 2005, it is the umbrella for the region's grower reds and much of its new wave.
