Sherry soils of Jerez divide into four classes
In his fourth progress report on European agriculture Mr F de Castella analyzes Jerez sherry district soils Afuera or Albarigat Barros Arenas and Alluvial deposits. He notes lime content and phylloxera resistance vary by soil, with Afuera soils hardest to reconstitute due to high carbonate. Barros clays and Arenas sands differ in lime content and grafted versus ungrafted vine performance. The report cites Andalusian delegates and Spanish authorities including Don Leopoldo de Salas y Amat and Dr D Juan Gaylin.
