About the winery

A century-old family winery in the heart of Chiclana, with seven cellars covering more than 800 square metres and typical winery architecture from a century ago.

Founded in 1857 by Juan Manuel García, a native of Cabuérniga (Cantabria), who traded in beverages in Cádiz and San Fernando before setting up his own winery. It retains its family spirit and original architecture to this day.

Bodegas F.J. Ruiz

Since 1972

Diego Ruiz Aragón set it up in 1972 almost as a hobby, with the wines of two Chiclana bodegas that were closing down. His son Fernando gave it commercial push from 1988, and today the house lives on its moscatels — El Dorado, El Viejo Dorado and a gran reserva — on the fino La Parra and the cream El Abuelo Fernando. It sells over the counter and shows the bodega with a tasting of Chiclana produce.
