Winemaker Notes

This Sherry is full-bodied and rich. It shows raisin, plum and date aromas in a powerful bouquet. The mouth feel is rich and smooth but it is well-balanced with acidity and therefore, lighter than expected. It is loaded with sweet, honeyed fruit and the finish is lengthy and clean. It is excellent by itself for dessert; used in stews, soups or for braising; poured over vanilla ice cream or to accompany cigars.

Critical Acclaim

WE 92

Wine Enthusiast

With a color akin to motor oil, this lush PX Sherry smells of golden and black raisins, caramel and kumquat. In terms of feel, it's unctuous up front, but ideally balanced on the back palate. Caramel, raisin and brown sugar flavors finish long, sticky and complex. It's hard not to love this.

WS 91

Wine Spectator

Prune, bittersweet chocolate and plum eau-de-vue notes are wrapped together in this thickly layered and velvety version. Warm Christmas pudding and toffee accents line the finish, with a flicker of date lending definition.

W&S 90

Wine & Spirits

This is unctuous and ample, redolent with notes of candied figs and almonds in syrup, salty notes playing like background music.

Bodegas Dios Baco

View all products

The origin of our winery dates back to 1765. However, in the early twentieth century, the legendary Palomino & Vergara winery was founded by Don Juan Vergara and Don Juan Palomino. Years later, these wineries would become part of Rumasa, running successfully for more than 20 years, and then passed into the hands of the first multinational of Jerez, John Harvey & Sons Ltd.

Finally, the company was purchased in 1992 by its current owner Don Jose Paez Morilla, founder of Bodegas Dios Baco, with the intention to return to the origins of its foundation. That is, to offer limited production, high quality, unbeatable products to the consumers.

Our Dios Baco cellar was built in 1848, more than 150 years ago, It was part of a complex of cellars called "The Twelve Disciples" after the disciples of Christ.

At present there are only three cellars: Bodega Baco, Bodega de la Cruz and Bodega Pio XII. The first being the most emblematic and the name given to our winery.

Known more formally as Jerez de la Frontera, Jerez is a city in Andalucía in southwest Spain and the center of the Jerez region and sherry production. Sherry is a mere English corruption of the term Jerez, while in French, Jerez is written, Xérès. Manzanilla is the freshest style of sherry, naturally derived from the seaside town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda.

Sherry Wine

Sherry is a fortified wine that comes in many styles from dry to sweet. True Sherry can only be made in Andalucía, Spain where the soil and unique seasonal changes give a particular character to its wines. The process of production—not really the grape—determine the type, though certain types are reserved for certain grapes. Palomino is responsible for most dry styles; Pedro Ximénez and Muscat of Alexandria are used for blending or for sweet styles.
