History: Gonzalez Byass was founded in Jerez in 1835 by Manuel Maria Gonzalez. Now in its fifth generation, the company is dedicated to the production and commercialisation of quality Sherry wines and spirits. Tio Pepe became the number one selling Fino in the world.
Regional information: Gonzalez Byass is situated in the city of Jerez, Andalusia, in the heart of the D.O. Jerez. The warm and humid climate aids grape maturation. The vineyards are on albariza soil, which has a high chalk content and large capacity for maintaining moisture, important given the long, hot, dry summers.
Vinification: Palomino grapes are pressed using pneumatic presses without crushing stems, seeds or skins. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, classification and fortification to 15.5%, the wine enters the Tio Pepe solera where it ages for more than 4 years in American oak barrels following the traditional Solera system. During this period the wine undergoes biological ageing under a layer of yeast known as the 'flor'.
