\"\"<\/a>Caballero is now one of the big players in the world of wine, with bodegas all over Spain (and they’re owners of Lustau of Jerez, too), but our visit was to the modestly-sized San Francisco bodega in El Puerto de Santa Maria, the production centre for their Fino Pav\u00f3n sherry. As with a lot of bodegas, a rather warehouse-like exterior conceals not only the \u201ccathedrals\u201d, but some pleasant open spaces and gardens, in this case including a Drago Milenario<\/span>, which seems to be something of a city symbol.<\/p>\n

Our guide was Ver\u00f3nica, who showed us around the vast bodega while explaining the methods of ageing sherry and the solera\/crianza system. We also saw the sacristy, the special room in every bodega that houses the unusual and high value products. Afterwards we moved on to the Castillo San Marcos a few minutes walk away, for a tasting of some Cabellero and Lustau sherries, along with some lovely snacks of jam\u00f3n Ib\u00e9rico, olives, cheese, and one of the best tortilla de patatas I’ve ever tasted. The castle, also owned by Caballero, was an impressive and perfect backdrop \u2013 a 13th century fortified church built over a former mosque, complete with Roman walls under the basement.<\/p>\n

Bodega visits are by appointment only.<\/p>\n
