Abstract

The transport of wines is not only a little studied aspect, in general, but is usually associated exclusively with trade, neglecting its participation in the productive phase: considerable in any case and very important in wine trades where there is spatial separation country/city between the vineyard and the bodega. This is the case for Marco del Jerez, where the production of its wines required numerous transport flows until the completion of their various elaborations. The material means and modes of transport as well as the types of contracts and the impact of prices on the cost of production of the wine-must were fundamental aspects in this regard, in a period of growth and the beginning of the modernization of the Jerez wine trade.
