5 Stars & Number 1 Cuisine Fortified Wines Tasting, November 2024 (NV)
"Sherry is an interesting beast as it can pretty much be anything from light dry fino sherry to lusciously sweet PX. Despite its range and versatility, I believe that most people, when they think of sherry, think of cream sherry, specifically associating it with the massively popular Harvey’s Bristol Cream which became the world’s largest-selling sherry in the 1950s.

As a result of its popularity back in the day, cream sherry has come to be associated with a bygone age and an older generation. It’s essentially uncool to like something last seen at your Gran’s house at special occasions.

But little by little sherry is coming back into vogue, with a younger generation discovering that there is a vast spectrum of sherry to choose from and that there really is a sherry for every palate whether you like your beverages dry or sweet. If you do like a sweet sip, then our panel of judges has an absolute treat for you with this 100% Pedro Ximénez which boasts a massive dentist-disapproving 370g of residual sugar. Deep mahogany brown in the glass with delightful green highlights, this wine is immediately heady and complex with a luscious treacly nose, as only a PX can. Aromas abound of prunes, raisins and memories of Granny’s Christmas fruit cake baking in the oven. The palate is weighty, concentrated and complex with fantastic sweetness and unctuous length. It’s profoundly hedonistic – just as it should be."

NZIWS Judges Comments (NV)
"This is a Sherry but not how you would know it. Rich, luscious, toffee, malt, raisins, it is Christmas Cake in a glass. A truly decadent treat – only share with good friends – or don’t share at all. A memorable experience."

Garth Gallaway, Avenues Magazine
"Nectar of the Gods would describe this utterly hedonistic, sweet, and luscious Sherry made from the Pedro Ximenez grape variety. Fantastically rich and dark, it just oozes with intense and continuous golden raisin and dried fig flavours wrapped up in swathe of superbly lubricious and syrupy joy. 'Sherry has never been as good as this, at least not for me. This is dark and brooding and the flavours are extraordinarily good. Dates, figs, caramel and prunes in abundance, with a silky smooth texture. I recommend this as a wonderful wine to drink with a good, stodgy winter pudding.'"

It was 1835 when a youthful Manuel María González Ángel embarked on a long career in the world of wine. Tradition, innovation, sustainability, and the search for excellence are his legacy.

González Byass has stayed true to its roots whilst also moving forward to offer the best wines and spirits all over the world. This commitment has seen them grow to 14 wineries in Spain, Chile, and Mexico, as well as a range of prominent spirits.

Accordingly, the 21st century began with the acquisition of Finca Moncloa, where the old traditions of making quality red wines in the province of Cadiz are kept alive alongside the recovery of the forgotten indigenous variety, Tintilla de rota, and then continued with the acquisition of the Croft, Viñas del Vero, and Pazos de Luscowineries.

Following the innovative spirit of the founder of González Byass, they built the Finca Constanciawineries in the heart of the province of Toledo.

In recent years González Byass has purchased Veramontein Chile, Pedro Domecqin Mexico, and their latest acquisition, Dominio Fournier, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero. Over this period they have increased the spirits family through the creation of their premium gin ranges, The London Nº 1 and MOM, and Nomad, their whisky made and aged in Scotland and finished in Jerez.
