It is most widely known for its flagship brand To Pepe, although it produces a full range of Fino, Manzanilla, Oloroso, Amontillado and Pedro Ximnez sherries. Gonzlez Byass was founded in 1835 by Manuel Mara Gonzlez Angel and Robert Blake Byass. The Gonzlez family were responsible for installing Spain’s first electricity and running water at the plant, and have been involved in various other winemaking-based innovations across the country. Today, the company has expanded to include 14 wineries producing hundreds of different wines and spirits from Spain, Chile and Mexico. The To Pepe brand was the first produced by the company in its founding year and has grown to be an iconic Fino sherry. In 1886, it became one of the first registered trademarks in the country with the logo of a sherry bottle complete with guitar, wide-brimmed hat and red Andalusian jacket. Produced from 100-percent Palomino grapes, it is aged for a least 4 years in American oak barrels, following the solera system.
