Jerez, Spanish Capital of Gastronomy 2026: A Year to Savor
It's official! Jerez de la Frontera has been chosen as the Spanish Capital of Gastronomy 2026. This recognition is no coincidence: it is the result of centuries of culinary tradition, an enviable pantry, and, of course, our world-unique wines. From the Antonio Parra Family, we invite you to celebrate this special year with us.
Why is Jerez the Capital of Gastronomy?
Jerez isn't just for drinking; it's to be tasted in every corner. Being the gastronomic capital means that throughout 2026, the city will be the epicenter of fine dining in Spain. But what makes our cuisine so special?
🍷 Sherry Wine as the Protagonist: There isn't a dish in Jerez that doesn't benefit from a splash of Fino, Oloroso, or Amontillado. Furthermore, wine pairing in our land is an art that elevates any product, from bay seafood to mountain meats.
🥘 Tradition and Avant-Garde: In Jerez, traditional stews like "ajo campero" or "berza jerezana" coexist with Michelin-starred restaurants that reinvent our ancestral flavors.
🌿 The Treasure of Vinegar: Jerez Vinegar, with its own Designation of Origin, is the secret condiment that adds personality to tables worldwide, and here we cherish it like liquid gold.
What to expect from Jerez in 2026?
During this year, Jerez will be filled with special events, master tastings, exclusive tapas routes, and encounters with top chefs. It will be the perfect time to visit the Food Market, get lost in the tabancos, and enjoy a gastronomic offer that has never been more vibrant.
