The Estate
Gonzalez Byass was founded in Jerez in 1835 by Manuel Maria Gonzalez. At the young age of 23 he decided to dedicate himself to the production and commercialisation of Sherry wines and spirits. In 1844, the first barrels of Tio Pepe were exported to London. Tio Pepe is named in homage to the founder’s uncle, Jose Angel. In 1855, the company’s UK distributor Robert Blake Byass was made a partner to strengthen links with the UK. However nowadays the company is once again controlled by the Gonzalez family, now in its sixth generation. Gonzalez Byass has a special focus on the production of rare old wines that have resided in their ancient cellars, a legacy of Jerez left to us by previous generations.
With recent accolades such as “Best Spanish Winery of the Decade” and listed on the “World’s Best Vineyards” every year, the addition of the Tio Pepe Sherry Hotel in 2020 allows guests to experience our hospitality throughout every element of your visit.
