About the winery

One of the oldest houses in the region, with documented ties dating back to 1264. It owns its own vineyards in the Macharnudo Alto pago.

The Valdespino family tradition dates back to 1264, when Alfonso X rewarded the knight Alfonso Valdespino with vineyard lands after the Reconquest of Jerez. The company as such was established in 1875 and remained in family hands until 1999, when it was bought by the José Estévez group, owner of Marqués del Real Tesoro and, since 2007, of La Guita as well. The group moved the butts to its complex on the N-IV road, and in 2023 Edrington, the company behind The Macallan, took half of its capital. Its vineyards in Macharnudo Alto remain a benchmark for single-vineyard wines.

Designations of origin

DO Jerez-Xérès-Sherry · Manzanilla-Sanlúcar de Barrameda

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.

DO Vinagre de Jerez (Sherry Vinegar)

View wineries →

A designation of its own for vinegar aged in the same American oak butts and through the same solera system as Sherry wine. Many wineries hold it alongside the wine DO; a few produce vinegar exclusively.
