A Trifecta of Delights in Jerez

By Linda Tancs

The Andalusian town of Jerez de la Frontera sports a trifecta of delights: wine, flamenco and horses. Sherry hails from this region of Spain, where you can participate in tastings and visit production sites. The town is also considered to be the home of flamenco, hosting an annual two-week winter festival that attracts flamenco artists from all over the world. Another gem is the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art, one of the most prestigious classical riding academies in the world. Their premier event is the show, “How the Andalusian Horses Dance,” an equestrian ballet accompanied by quintessential Spanish music and 18th-century styled costumes.
