THE WINERIES

We currently have three Wineries at different points of Sanlúcar that together constitute a total area of almost 64,000 m2: Bodega Misericordia, Bodega Pago de Miraflores and Bodega Pago Sanlúcar Viejo.

These accommodate over 20,000 American oak botas for ageing La Guita (the “botas” are typical Jerez casks, each with a capacity of 516 litres).

The winery, where winemaking takes place, is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and is located in the Bodega Pago de Miraflores. This was acquired in 1991 and is situated in the vineyards by the same name, one of the oldest “terroirs” in the area. It is here that we cultivate the grape that is also used to make our white wines Castillo de Miraflores and Pago de Miraflores. It is in this winery also that we store the deposits with a capacity of 5.204.000 litres.

In 1993 we acquired the Bodega Pago Sanlúcar Viejo. Here, between 2001 and 2003, we built an extension of 6,000 m2 on two floors – one of which is semi-underground – making it the first winery of these characteristics to be constructed in the Marco de Jerez. This winery currently occupies an area of over 11,000 m2 and houses a total of 14,000 casks, as well as the bottling plant, which has been totally renovated, and French Vosgues casks for the ageing of our fermented white wine Pago de Miraflores.

Our bottling plant for Manzanilla La Guita is unique in the world. It is capable of applying the “guita” or cord at a speed of 12,000 bottles an hour. This plant, following much fruitless negotiation with multinational companies, was designed and manufactured in Catalonia.

The emblematic Bodega Misericordia, whose building is described in detail in the History section, is used exclusively for ageing Manzanilla La Guita and is equipped with facilities to attend to our visitors, in addition to renting banquet and meeting halls.

Our sales offices are located in the city of Jerez de la Frontera, on the premises of Bodegas M. Gil Luque – the other winery of the Group – on the Carretera de Lebrija, Km 3 - Viña “El Telégrafo”, surrounded by our own vineyards.
