As you will see if you click the link, Tintilla de Rota (anglicized to "Rota Tent") is back, courtesy of the Gonzalez-Byass sherry company; it is now grown near Arcos de la Frontera, a picturesque town perched atop a mountain about a dozen miles from Jerez de la Frontera, where sherry is made. Rota Tent was often used in Great Britain for communion wine.

No I didn't and that's interesting... If I get back that way, sounds like a side trip is in order! :-)
When I was working PWD, we went to Arcos for the Running of the Bulls.
@KurtP: I remember, although I didn't participate. Vejer de la Frontera also had a bull run, as I recall. One of the years I lived in Rota a sailor was gored in Arcos and had to be flown to Germany for treatment.
