Bodegas El Maestro Sierra - Jerez de la Frontera

“...wine for this land is a sign of identity, present in literature, history, religion, festivals and the deepest feelings of our people...”

These are the words that Maria del Carmen Borrego Plá uses to describe the relationship that the people of Jerez have with wine, and with Sherry in particular. Maria del Carmen is an enologist and scientist, a tireless popularizer of Sherry culture and, to this day, the head of Jerez de la Frontera's historic winery, El Maestro Sierra, founded in 1830. Before her, it was her mother Doña Pilar Plá Pechovierto who held the corporate reins.

El Maestro Sierra produces Sherry of all types, both sweet and dry, from both Palomino and Pedro Ximénez grapes.
