The excellent Ciclo de
Conferencias (Cycle of Lectures) offered by Williams & Humbert since 2014 continues on Thursday 26th
April with a fascinating lecture entitled “Tránsitos de Ida y Vuelta: La
Anudación de Tres Continentes” (Return Journeys: the Ties between Three
Continents) by María del Carmen Borrego Plá, Professor of History at the
Universidad Hispalense in Sevilla, author of various books and co-proprietor of
Bodegas El Maestro Sierra. She will explain the connections and cultural,
social and economic exchanges between Europe, Asia and America which took place
during the XVI century - including the wines and their customs – which have
lasted till the present day without us being aware of their origins. The
lecture will take place at the bodegas of Williams & Humbert at 19.30 and a
glass of Sherry will be served afterwards. Go if you possibly can, there is no
charge, but places are limited.
A blog and review on all things Sherry. It is about tasting, enjoyment and learning more about the World’s Finest Wine. "Sherry is a thoroughbred" as Javier Hidalgo rightly puts it. Included are the amazing local Brandies and the remarkably good table wines also produced in the province of Cádiz.
