Bodegas Fundador (Pedro Domecq)
Bodegas Fundador
One of Jerez's oldest bodegas, originally the Domecq family winery, famous for its 'mosque' cellar with rows of arcaded columns.
The winery dates back to 1730 and is known for its Fundador brandy and sherry brands such as Harveys. Guided tours take visitors through the large cellar known as 'La Mezquita' (The Mosque), where tens of thousands of casks line up beneath Moorish-style arcades, an impressive sight. You can also see barrels signed by famous visitors and taste sherry and sherry brandy. It lies in the northwest of the old town, a few minutes' walk from the cathedral. Tours cost about 20 to 30 euros and must be booked in advance.
