\nThese two prizes, which were revealed last night, were the finishing touches to the 38th edition of the London-based competition and certify the excellent track record of the sherry winery, which also received the “Sherry Trophy<\/strong><\/a>“, “Palo Cortado Troph<\/a>y<\/strong>” and “Pedro Xim\u00e9nez Trophy<\/strong><\/a>.”<\/p>\n
\nOn hearing the news, Sergio stated: “For everyone that makes up the Lustau team, and those of us who were lucky enough to work alongside him, it is a great honour to win a prize that bears Manolo’s name. Being awarded the title of Fortified Winemaker of the Year for the fifth year in a row proves that we are on the right track, and the work of everyone on the team is key and fundamental to this.<\/em>“<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
