Fine Wine Cellars

Re-invention is key at Domecq. Irish founder Patrick Murphy left the place to his commercial advisor Juan Haurie in 1791, who then had to supply Napoleon's invading army. Bankruptcy ensued, staved off by Juan's aristocratic relative, Don Pedro Domecq Lembeye. His descendant Don Alvaro has started afresh in an artisanal way, buying Jerez' historic Pilar Aranda cellar. Alvaro now makes our Oloroso: dark amber nectar with luscious, raisiny depths and spicy fruitcake richness.
