Cardenal Mendoza Solera Gran Reserva with casing

Sánchez Romate Hnos. 1781 Jerez de la Frontera. For centuries, the city was world-famous for its Sherry wines, and by the end of the 18th century it had become a hive of commercial activity due to the great international demand for these wines. With some of the oldest wineries in Spain, Jerez attracted merchants from near and far. However, it was a Spaniard, Juan Sánchez de la Torre, who founded the Sánchez Romate Hermanos winery, one of the few remaining wineries in the Jerez Designation of Origin that is still in the hands of local owners - and less so in the hands of the family. What drove Juan Sánchez de la Torre was his restless nature and passion for Jerez and its wine heritage. Over time, the winery grew and adapted to the successive technical advances that were taking place while maintaining respect for traditional methods. More than a century after its foundation, the winery became a milestone when in 1887 the fourth generation of the Sánchez Romate family decided to create an exclusive brandy for family and close friends. This was the beginning of Cardenal Mendoza Solera Gran Reserva, the company's flagship brand. Today, Sánchez Romate wines and brandies maintain the international spirit created by Juan Sánchez de la Torre himself, with a firm commitment to quality and expansion to the rest of the world.
