Barbadillo

Филтър

In 1821, Don Benigno Barbadillo settled in the town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, northwest of the province of Cádiz, part of the Andalusian region of southern Spain. He bought Bodegas El Toro in 1824 and started exporting to Britain and the United States. In 1827, the family launched a Manzanilla-style wine called Divina Pastora. This brings fame to the company because it is the first Sherry brand. Until then, sherry was sold in small barrels in bars and restaurants. The cellars of Barbadillo are located in the best areas of Sanlúcar de Barrameda and cover a total area of 75,000 m², with a capacity of 35 million liters (about 65,000 barrels). Today, Bodegas Barbadillo is run by representatives of the seventh generation Barbadillo and is one of the ten oldest companies in Spain and among the largest producers of sherry.
