The Consejo Regulador yesterday held a reception for the honorary Spanish Consul in El Paso (Texas) Maria Angeles Alvarez de Gallardo. Jerez and El Paso have been twinned since 1998. The host, Evaristo Babe, head of the brandy division of the Consejo and also of Fedejerez held a tasting of typical wines and tapas from Jerez.
The Consul declared that "Jerez is a marvellous and charming city, from its buildings to its people. It's very noble. I love the horses and, of course the Sherry". Evaristo Babe replied that the reception demonstrated the good relations which exist between the two cities. "It's more friendly than institutional".
