24.8.13 Sanlucar Harvest Underway

The Sherry harvest has begun in Sanlucar with Barbadillo starting to pick 3 million kilos of excellent quality from their 350 hectares of vineyard at Santa Lucia and Gibalbin. They also have contracted suppliers in Sanlucar and Jerez vineyards. Some grapes – 150,000 kilos – were harvested last week for the Pie de Cuba, or starter fermentations, and, of course for their table wine Castillo de San Diego. 11 million kilos are expected in Sanlucar.
