Why |
The history of Sherry centres on the Spanish town of Jerez. Vineyards ring the town, and there are numerous bodegas in the town itself. Many opportunities for sherry and port tasting can be found throughout the area. Jerez has a rich culture of flamenco dancing, guitar playing, horses, fine Andalucian cuisine – and some great walking in the surrounding areas. It is an easy drive to the coast from here. |
