Wine tourism in Andalucía.

Andalucía is synonymous with fortified wines. Across its 7 provinces with wineries open to visitors, some of the world's most singular wines are made: fino and manzanilla aged under a veil of flor in the Marco de Jerez, the olorosos and Pedro Ximénez of Montilla-Moriles, and the historic sweet moscatel wines of the Málaga coast. A unique heritage that blends century-old soleras, cathedral wineries and a wine culture tied to the sea and the south.

With 219 wineries spread across Cádiz, Córdoba, Málaga, Granada, Huelva, Almería and Sevilla, travellers can explore appellations as recognisable as Jerez-Xérès-Sherry, Manzanilla-Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Montilla-Moriles or Málaga, as well as the emerging high-altitude areas of the D.O.P. Granada, on the slopes of Sierra Nevada.

Beyond the glass, Andalusian wine tourism unfolds among tastings of fortified wines, tabancos, flamenco and a cuisine marked by fried fish and the Mediterranean diet. A perfect destination to discover why the south invented its own way of understanding wine.
