Gonzalez Byass is known worldwide as a sherry wine and brandy producer. The company has a large selection of products, among which the sherry Tío Pepe (worldwide leader in sales), the Soberano brandy (sales leader in Spain, its country of origin) and Lepanto, with its characteristic jar, designed by the Royal Factory of La Granja.
The wines of Jerez produced at this winery are made from the best Palomino grapes, which result in a young wine that is meticulously mixed with more mature wines. The sherry is aged for a year in oak barrels in the open air, since it is one of the few wines in the world that is improved by contact with the air. A very noble and aged sherry can educate and improve a younger one. The oldest wines are kept in the oldest barrels, called “solera”, and they are constantly refilled, so that over time, the quality level can be maintained.
During the visit we will discover the process by which the most famous sherry wines in Jerez are produced. We will visit the different installations at the winery, and finish with a tasting of the famous wines that are sold worldwide.
