Vinification Details
- This Fino comes from the same solera as iconic brand Tio Pepe and is aged in the solera system for an average of 6 years on the 180-year-old family estate in the heart of Jerez. Our talented winemaker Antonio Flores,who was born in the winery and grew up watching his father make wine here, hand selects the casks which express the finest quality and intensity. This Fino is also perfect with a range of tapas including cured ham, olives, almonds and cheese.
History
- Gonzalez Byass was founded in Jerez by Manual Maria Gonzalez in 1835. The first barrels of Tio Pepe were exported to London in 1844 and in 1855 the UK distributor, Robert Blake Byass, was made a partner in order to strengthen links to the UK. Ever since, Gonzalez Byass has been dedicated to the production of quality sherry wines and is still controlled by the Gonzalez family, now in its fifth generation.
Regional Information
- Gonzalez Byass is situated in the city of Jerez, Andalusia, in the heart of D.O. Jerez, owning over 800 hectares of vineyard, all located in Jerez superior. This area enjoys a warm and humid climate which helps in the maturation of the grape. The soils of the area are high in chalk, known as 'albariza soil' this helps to maintain moisture during the long dry summers. With vineyards split 95% Palomino and 5% Pedro Ximenez. Gonzalez Byass is the only winery to have PX planted in Jerez.
