Jerez City Council has agreed to name a roundabout in the city´s San
Joaquín area in honour of the Lustau
oenologist Manuel Lozano who died suddenly three years ago aged only 61. Greatly admired
and respected by all who knew him, Manolo, as he was known to his friends, won the International Wine Challenge trophy
for Best Fortified Winemaker no fewer than seven times in a row. Since 2009 he
was in charge of all winemaking operations from looking after the vineyards to
ageing the wine. In 2014 he was awarded the medal for Oenological Merit and the
City of Jerez Prize, the one he was most proud of.
