History
Bodegas García de Velasco has operated as a small almacenista (stockholder bodega) in Jerez de la Frontera since 1886, contributing Fino and Amontillado barrels to larger houses. The almacenista tradition is a distinctive feature of the Jerez sherry system, where small bodegas maintain high-quality soleras sold to négociants.
