Jerez of golden amber colour. On the nose round intense aromas with the nuttiness of the Palomino variety standing out, in this case hazelnuts and walnuts. On the palate flavourful and structured with a long and complex aftertaste and slight vanilla touches with a surprising sweet note on the finish.

Alfonso should be served slightly chilled between 10 and 12ºC in a small white wine glass. Perfect with rich meat stews, cured meats and beef/goose consommé. 

Average 8 years in American oak casks following the traditional Solera system.

Gonzalez Byass was founded in 1835 by Manuel Maria Gonzalez Angel in the Jerez region of Spain. At the age of 23, he decided to devote himself to the production and sale of sherry wines and spirits. In 1844, the first casks of Tio Pepe's sherry were exported to London. The name "Tio Pepe" is a tribute to the founder's uncle, José Angel. Then, in 1855, a British distributor, Robert Black Bias, partnered with the company to strengthen its business ties with Great Britain, the main market for sherry wines at the time. The commercial alliance between the Bias and Gonzalez families continued until 1988, when the Bias family went out of business, and the winery passed into the hands of the direct descendants of Manuel Maria Gonzalez. Read more
