History of Cala & Arrobas

Being the most ancient town of Western Europe Gdr, Gades, Gadir, Cadiz has since Phoenician time played an important commercial and social role. With more than 3000 years exporting wines its ports were a crucial intersection between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The general character of sherry wine, its own identity, is not merely the result of a geographic origin, no matter how exceptional the natural conditions which converge within the Jerez Region.
For over 3,000 years different historical circumstances have moulded the identity of these wines, in the same way that the wine itself, its production, sale and enjoyment have supposed a determining factor in the history of the region and the cultural identity of its inhabitants.
