Gonzalez Byass

FAQs For Gonzalez Byass Leonor Palo Cortado Sherry

How is it made?

Leonor begins life as a wine destined for biological ageing, but its flor unexpectedly fades early, sending it into oxidative ageing. This “wild child” trajectory creates a hybrid profile: lifted amontillado aromatics with the depth and structure of oloroso.

Aged for 12 years in seasoned oak casks, Leonor develops hazelnut richness, bitter‑orange lift, toasted notes and silky texture. Its complexity reflects the craftsmanship of Gonzalez Byass and the unpredictable nature of Palo Cortado.

What is the Jerez Superior zone?

The highest‑quality vineyard area with chalk‑rich albariza soils.

How should I store it?

Cool, dark place before opening; fridge afterwards.

How should I serve it?

Serve 10-12°C in a small white‑wine glass.
