DELGADO ZULETA is the oldest family-owned winery in the Jerez-Xèréz-Sherry & Manzanilla district currently maturing and commercialising Manzanilla, Sherry and “Tierra de Cádiz” still white wine. IT IS LOCATED in Sanlucar de Barrameda, a small coastal town at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River, facing the Atlantic Ocean and the Doñana Natural Park. DELGADO ZULETA was established in 1744 by Mr. Francisco Gil de Ledesma, Knight of the Order of Calatrava and Sanlucar Honorary Mayor. The current name honours Mr. José María Delgado Zuleta, a navy officer and skilful business man that ran the company after marrying a direct descendant of its founder. That was a time of great growth and notoriety as the company became official suppliers of the Spanish Royal Court. IN 1918, a famous flamenco dancer and well known Cuple singer, Aurora Jauffre, allowed the winery to use her artistic name “La Goya” for their very best Manzanilla. Since then “La Goya” has been a reference of quality in the most important Manzanilla markets. These include Sanlucar de Barrameda, Manzanilla origin, where today the brand maintains its leading position. IN 1930 their majesties King Alfonso XIII and Queen Victoria Eugenia, grandparents of the present King of Spain, honoured the Botas by endorsing our winery with their signature. THE VINEYARDS that have been in the family for over 200 years are located between the famous pagos of Miraflores and Pastranilla. Their special Albariza soils make them part of the “Jerez Superior” area. THE CELLARS are strategically situated in the most humid areas of Sanlucar de Barrameda to get the ideal conditions for the formation of the “flor”, which is essential to mature Manzanilla. The buildings are divided between the Old Town or “Barrio Alto” and the Dehesilla zone. OUR own cooperage , proof of our culture, safeguards the wealth of tradition which gives our wines their unique identity. WINES
Delgado Zuleta La Goya Manzanilla 375ml
Manzanilla now has its own appellation (Denominacion de Origen; DO), being Manzanilla - Sanlucar de Barrameda. This is due to its distinctive style and also its market acceptance and success. The time has come to ask for a Manzanilla and NOT a "dry sherry". Classic Manzanilla. Tangy and sea-salt like grip on the nose and palate, superb with tapas and to tantalize the buds before a meal.

Delgado Zuleta Quo Vadis Amontillado
This wine has an average age of 40 years. The evaporation that has taken place over these years has resulted in an alcohol content of 20% and deep, dark colour and flavours. The nose has some very strong flavours of pastry, nuts and varnish (nice varnish). The palate is powerful and complex with intensely concentrated flavours. The finish is extremely persistent. Food matches include almonds, matured cheeses, mushroom dishes, white meat and blue fish. Superb and expensive! View Full Details
