About Tio Pepe Xeres Sherry 750mL
Tio Pepe is the definitive Fino Sherry from González Byass, aged under a living veil of flor yeast in the bodegas of Jerez. On the nose, it is strikingly pale and luminously bright, offering an immediate rush of freshly baked bread, green almonds, and saline sea air — a signature of its prolonged biological ageing. The palate is bone dry and electrifyingly crisp, with a razor-sharp acidity that carries notes of green apple, lemon zest, and chamomile. A subtle nuttiness and a whisper of yeast lend complexity without weight. The finish is long, clean, and bracingly dry with a lingering mineral salinity that is utterly refreshing.
