3 vegan winemaking spots in Jerez & Sherry, editor-picked by Cork & Curve. All dietary guides in Jerez & Sherry.
Emilio Lustau ★ 4.7
Casco Antiguo, Jerez de la Frontera · Plaza del Cubo 4, 11403 Jerez de la Frontera, Cadiz, Spain
Emilio Lustau documents that its oloroso, amontillado and palo cortado sherries use no animal-derived fining agents. The oxidatively-aged styles (oloroso and above) do not require gelatin, isinglass or egg white fining that is sometimes used in young table wines. The Lustau website confirms vegan-friendly production for the majority of its range.
Tip: The Lustau Almacenista range (single-bodega sherries) is explicitly documented as vegan-friendly on the producer website.
Barbadillo Manzanilla and Oloroso Range ★ 4.6
Barrio Alto, Sanlucar de Barrameda · Calle Sevilla 1, 11540 Sanlucar de Barrameda, Cadiz, Spain
Barbadillo confirms on its website and on the Barnivore database that the Solear Manzanilla, Oloroso and the other non-fino styles are produced without animal-derived fining agents. The flor-protected biologically-aged wines (manzanilla and fino) self-clarify through the yeast veil process and do not require fining. Barbadillo is the largest Sanlucar producer and documents its vegan-friendly production across the range.
Tip: The Solear Manzanilla and Oloroso Seco are widely available vegan-confirmed Barbadillo expressions.
Gonzalez Byass Tio Pepe Fino ★ 4.7
Casco Antiguo, Jerez de la Frontera · Calle Manuel Maria Gonzalez 12, 11403 Jerez de la Frontera, Cadiz, Spain
Gonzalez Byass Tio Pepe Fino is produced without animal-derived fining agents. The fino's flor yeast veil acts as a natural clarification agent, making animal fining redundant for the biologically-aged styles. Confirmed on the Barnivore vegan wine database.
Tip: Tio Pepe is widely stocked and an accessible vegan-confirmed Jerez fino.
