Andalucia is a wine region located in southern Spain, known for its rich history and diverse range of wines. The region has been producing wine for over 3,000 years, with the Phoenicians and Romans being some of the first to cultivate vines in the area. Andalucia is home to several distinct wine-producing areas, including Jerez, Montilla-Moriles, and Málaga.
The most famous wine style from Andalucia is Sherry, which is produced in the Jerez region using the Palomino grape. Other notable wine styles include the sweet dessert wines of Málaga, made from Moscatel and Pedro Ximénez grapes, and the fortified wines of Montilla-Moriles, which are similar to Sherry but made using different grapes and production methods.

The city of Jerez is home to the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art, which is famous for its dancing horses. The school also has a wine cellar that houses some of the oldest and rarest Sherries in the world, dating back to the 18th century.
