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
