Jerez-de-la-frontera City Guide And Airport Transfer Service

The cradle of Jerez wines and brandies covers more than 7,000 hectares of vineyards, an area with more than 300 days of sunshine a year. It’s one of the oldest wine regions in the world with more than 3000 years of history; Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, and Arabs. Acclaimed for its famous sherries and brandies (soleras), Jerez is also the home of The Carthusian horse, the Spanish fighting bull, and the Toro Bravo, which is considered the cradle of flamenco. Often overlooked in Spain’s southwest province of Cádiz, Jerez de la Frontera, sits atop the so-called Sherry Triangle some 90 km south of Sevilla and about 20 minutes north of the Bay of Cádiz at El Puerto de Santa Maria.

 Although it’s easily reached by car or train as a day trip from Seville, there is more than enough to keep one busy over several days if your interests are food and wine, horses, or flamenco. There are weekly performances put on by the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art. Jerez’s important Flamenco Festival, now in its 24th year, is held in late February/early March, but flamenco can be enjoyed in several of the sherry bars and restaurants in Jerez’s Santiago and San Miguel barrios throughout the year.

The town has many interesting examples of Gothic architecture. The 15th-century Church of Santiago, which houses the image of Our Father Jes del Prendimiento, attributed to La Roldana, is located in the Santiago quarter, the birthplace of bulera music. This style is also evident in the Santo Domingo Convent-Church and the San Marcos' Church. Each one contains a selection of images carried through the streets during Easter Week (Jerez's main festival, along with the Horse Fair).

The Cathedral, a magnificent work of Baroque architecture, is nearby.

Jerez de la Frontera is home to more than 20 sherry wineries. Some of these bodegas, such as Gonzalez Byass' Tio Pepe winery, offer fantastic architecture as well as interesting tours to learn about the history and current reality of sherry. Sherry is one of the world's finest wines, and while its popularity has declined in recent decades, it remains distinct and difficult to produce. A drink with a strong British influence, it has had as much influence on Jerez culture as horses and flamenco.

The Royal School of Equestrian Art is based in Jerez de la Frontera.In an adjacent arena, you can watch a show and a performance of the high art of dressage.

The horses used are bred locally by the monks of La Cartuja monastery on the outskirts of Jerez.For over 600 years, monks have done so.These horses, which have a significant amount of Arab blood, are smaller than pure race Arabs.They are very strong and extremely agile, which makes them ideal for dressage.One distinguishing feature is that they are all born black.Then, over the course of five years, they change color, with some turning completely white.

The production of sherry, as well as the work done in the vineyards and during grape harvest, played an important indirect role in the development of flamenco in Jerez de la Frontera. Jerez de la Frontera had a significant gypsy population that worked in the vineyards nearby. During the Reconquista, it was common for Gypsies to settle in Castilian cities. The growth of the wine industry attracted a large number of gypsies who found work in the harvest and other fields. They chose to live in the Barrio de Santiago district. Tio Luis el de la Juliana, a well-known character, is regarded as the first flamenco singer. Many more followed suit.

Transfers to Jerez City take about 15 minutes, and you will find yourself in a smart but small center that owes its existence largely to the once-thriving sherry-making industry. There are still plenty of sherry houses to visit, as well as a surprising number of shops.
