About the winery

The leading manzanilla brand in Spain, according to its group, founded in Sanlúcar in 1852 by Domingo Pérez Marín. Since 2007 it has belonged to the José Estévez group, owner of Valdespino and Real Tesoro, and it ages its soleras in two Sanlúcar bodegas: Misericordia, in the upper town, and Pago Sanlúcar Viejo.

The house’s oldest bodega is on Calle Misericordia, at the highest point of Sanlúcar, and is also called San Juan de Dios after the hospital that stood there in the sixteenth century. All the grapes come from coastal pagos in Sanlúcar, from growers the firm has agreements with. Besides the classic manzanilla, it releases en rama a manzanilla, a manzanilla pasada and an amontillado.

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.

Bodegas Barrero

Since 1798

The house that has been picking up what Sanlúcar let fall. It starts in 1798 with the Marquis of Casa Arizón's San Pedro bodega; in 1986 José Luis Barrero bought the Miguel Sánchez Ayala firm outright, and in 2019 the two Pedro Romero buildings. That makes 8,300 square metres of bodega in the Barrio Bajo, a step from the beach, and it has recently opened to visitors.

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.
