The Consejo Regulador will support Vinoble 2014 with 50,000
euros and will soon sign a collaboration agreement with co-sponsor the City Council
of Jerez for the XIII event scheduled for the 1st -3rd of
June. Vinoble, which celebrates the best of the world’s sweet and fortified
wines, is now regarded as a very important event for the city, promoting Sherry
and boosting tourism and commerce.
The mayoress of Jerez, Maria Jose Garcia Pelayo, pointed out
during discussions on next year’s civic calendar, that 2014 will be an
important year for wine in Jerez and that the central government and the Junta
de Andalucia have also committed their support for the event, though final
confirmation is still awaited before promotion can begin. She also said that a
national congress of winemakers will take place at the same time.
Fifteen bodegas which form a part of the Ruta de los Vinos y
Brandies of the Jerez area will be coordinated by the Consejo, and the eventual
winner of this year’s Copa de Jerez (an international competition for
restaurants to create dishes to marry with Sherry) will also be involved.
