Operational Group: Authentication of DO Jerez vinegar to improve the competitiveness of producers in the sector

Spain is the third largest exporter of vinegar worldwide, and Jerez vinegar in particular is the main benchmark for quality of this type of product in Spain.

Currently, it is difficult to feasibly control the origin and best practices of Sherry vinegar, which creates a significant fraud problem that directly affects the region's wineries, including nearly fifty agricultural companies and cooperatives. This is intended to prevent fraud in the production and sale of Sherry vinegar, thereby benefiting industry operators.

The project also aims to impact the current specifications governing Sherry Vinegar and provide guidance for current technical and health regulations.
