This sherry comes from vineyards to the north-west of Jerez, from the well-known calcareous white Albariza terroirs, consisting of lime, clay and pebble. Alba means white, the bottom is dazzling white (the sunlight is reflected) and very chalky. In the extreme case, the soil contains 80% lime. The lime soil is very porous and absorbs rainwater well, so that the vines find moisture in the deep soil layers during the dry periods.

Bodega El Maestro Sierra was founded in 1830 by one of the best drum makers of that time, master carpenter Jose Antonio Sierra. It wanted to make Sherry itself, which at the time, the 19th century, was primarily a noble affair. Nowadays El Maestro Sierra is undoubtedly one of the top of the almacenistas and owns one of the oldest stocks of sherry, a true treasure. Cellar master Juan Clavijo has been working here for more than 50 years according to the old traditions, with everything with the hand goes. He decides which wines become a Fino, which Amontillado etc. The unique location in Jerez, the purchase of only the best grapes from the best farmers in Jerez and the very old stock of Sherry (soleras of more than 100 years old) make this house into unique.
