History
Gonzalez Byass was founded in Jerez by Manuel 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 it's fifth generation. The Del Duque Solera was started in 1835 with 16 barrels bought from the Duke of Medinaceli
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 situated 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.

Vinification Details
As soon as the Palomino grapes reach the winery they are gently pressed, the lightest, finest juices from the first pressing go into Del Duque. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks the wine is fermented to 15.5% whereupon it enters the Tio Pepe Solera. Here it ages for 4 years before moving into the Vina AB solera, during a further 4 years the flor begins to die and the wines ages oxidatively turning into an amontillado. It then moves to the Del Duque solera for a further 22 years of ageing.
