Gonzalez Byass
Gonzalez Byass was founded in Jerez in 1835 by Manuel Maria Gonzalez who dedicated himself to the production and commercialisation of Sherry wines at the age of 23. Named for Gonzalez` uncle Jose Angel, in 1844 the first barrels of Tio Pepe were exported to London. In 1855 the company`s UK distributor Robert Blake Byass was made a partner in order to strengthen links with the UK, the number one market for Sherry wines. The company is now controlled by the fifth generation of the Gonzalez family and has continued to tirelessly develop the global market for fine Sherry.
