Built in 1782, this Andalusian-style building was at once a palatial home, a warehouse, and an administrative center for tithes paid to the church until 1841. La Sacristía is situated next to a Moorish patio of graceful arches and columns, and holds some of the finest and rarest palo cortado in existence—much of which is over one hundred years old.

Description
94, Wine Advocate
“Barbadillo is somehow a specialist in Palo Cortado, and they now offer a younger, gentler and more straightforward NV Palo Cortado Criadera Selection from the Tío Río solera. It’s an elegant oxidative wine, with an average age of 14 years, with a peachy nose, gentle and tender, but with a more saline and sharper palate with a bitter twist in the finish. It has an Oloroso nose and an Amontillado palate. 906 bottles were filled in March 2024.”
