“Spain’s gastronomic maridaje – the marriage of food and wine – is a definite threesome in Jerez de la Frontera, where all life is fuelled by sherry and tapas” The Guardian
Why we love it
Jerez de la Frontera is known worldwide for its sherry, food, and flamenco. The preserved city centre has been declared an historic site, but its contemporary culture is decidedly chic. Experience a tantalising mix of Spanish heritage, the flavour and aroma of the regional cuisine including exquisite tapas, and a behind-the-scenes look at the wines that make Jerez a hotspot for oenophiles and gastronomes alike.

- Take a behind-the-scenes look at the complicated process of making sherry, with tasting at Lustau winery
- Indulge in a 20-course tasting menu with wine pairing at three Michelin-starred Aponiente
- Enjoy the ‘Sherry Dinner’ at fine dining family restaurant La Carbona
Exclusive to TRULY
- This experience is unique to TRULY guests
Description
Founded in 1896, Bodegas Lustau produces some of the world’s best sherry, including Fino La Ina and Oloroso Emperatriz Eugenia. Lustau has been honoured and recognised with several awards: ‘Best Spanish Producer 2011’, ‘Winningest Winery in Spain 2012’ and Lustau oenologist, Manuel Lozano, has been named Best Fortified Winemaker of the Year seven years in a row by the International Wine Challenge of London.
Tour Lustau’s bodega with an expert guide, pairing foods with wine in a professional tasting. Indulge in Sherries, brandies and vinagre de Jerez (Sherry vinegar).
In the heart of the city, try traditional cuisine at family owned, Andaluz-chic, La Carboná. Chef Javier Muñoz’s ‘Sherry Dinner’ is inspired by ingredients all cooked in, and paired with sherry. Described as the “Sherry Chef” by the Financial Times, Muñoz serves up exceptional grilled meats and fish that are served alongside more inventive dishes such as a cheese ice-cream with Fino.
The 20-course tasting menu at two Michelin-starred Aponiente is testament to Chef Ángel León’s passionate commitment to sustainable seafood and ground-breaking marine research. Known as the ‘chef of the sea’, León was named Spain’s best chef at the Royal Academy of Gastronomy’s awards in 2013 and his intriguing 20-course tasting menu features a wealth of local sea food, working its way from the bottom to the top of the marine food chain. In the attractively restored dining space, savour the weird and the wonderful menu that features overlooked fruits of the sea; from herring to sea moss, plankton to meagre prepared and presented in modern fine cuisine.
