Jerez is home to Spanish sherry production and while Real's stars are keeping off the hard stuff as they get fit for the new campaign after last season's disappointments, their tiny rivals were left punch drunk in a one-sided affair.
New coach Jose Antonio Camacho saw Guti blast a second-half hattrick after Fernando Morientes, loaned out to Monaco last season and not set to feature this season in the white of Real, had opened the scoring on 12 minutes.
Javier Portillo swiftly added a second before Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane notched a brace each, to add two goals either side of the break by Raul and Beckham.
On Sunday, Real will head over the border to face Portugal's Benfica, where Giovanni Trapattoni has just taken over.
