Bodegas y Viñedos Diez Mérito is an artisan family bodega whose origins date back to 1876 when Don Salvador Diez y Pérez Múñoz founded the firm Diez Hermanos.
Having passed through the hands of the big groups Rumasa and Paternina, the firm was acquired in March 2016 by a local Jerez family, the Espinosas, who restored to the bodegas their own individual identity and returned them to their roots in Jerez.
