The history of what is now Bodegas Álvaro Domecq SL dates back to 1850, the year in which Bodegas Pilar Aranda was founded, which for centuries established itself as one of the highest quality producers in the Marco de Jerez. Pilar Aranda was the first woman winemaker in the Marco de Jerez and the first to be elected Honorary Foreman of the Grape Harvest Festival. Today it is a benchmark in the world of sherry. With the utmost respect for this tradition and the important place occupied by the winery, in 1999, Álvaro Domecq Romero, a well-known rejoneador born in Jerez, and a great fan of the world of wines from his land, took charge of the mythical Jerez winery.

The hallmark of Bodegas Álvaro Domecq SL continues to be the commitment to quality and commitment to the Jerez tradition, maintaining a way of working that for years has produced some of the most appreciated wines in international markets, especially the British market.

After eight years of exhaustive work, Bodegas Álvaro Domecq takes a new step and joins Avanteselecta, a company that produces wines in the main Spanish wine-producing areas under a common philosophy whose fundamental pillars are the search for unique terroir and the defense of varieties. native to create unique projects that make a difference in the areas where they are located. Under this premise, Bodegas Álvaro Domecq SL fits perfectly into the company that is taking Álvaro Domecq wines to more than 35 countries.

The system of criaderas and soleras, the strict control of the sacks that are carried out each year and the care with which the wines are treated throughout the process offer a result that makes the difference and that has positioned Bodegas Álvaro Domecq SL among the producers of the Marco de Jerez who have contributed in recent years to a new rebirth of this type of wine that is beginning to recover its prestige throughout the world.
