The Harvest Festival 2015

As part of the festival you can visit the exhibition of the history of the Consejo Regulador which runs until September 27th. 

Entitled “80 Years Defending What Is Ours” it is part of the Fiesta de la Vendimia celebrations and highlights the definitive patrimony and identity of the city – “Nuestra tierra, nuestra gente y nuestra cultura” (our land, our people and our culture).

On show are photographs and curiosities of the wine trade, generic label designs, old documents from the gremios (wine guilds predating the Consejo), and the first Reglamentos (rules) of the Denominación de Origen from 1935 among many other things.

It is an entertaining exhibition and one which will appeal to anybody interested in the world of Sherry – our world,

César Saldaña, Director General El Consejo Regulador.
