Solera 1847 Cream is a sweet oloroso wine masterfully crafted by González Byass, made from a selection of their finest Palomino Fino and Pedro Ximénez grapes. Awarded gold medals at the Concurso de Vinhos do Brasil and the Sakura Japan Women’s Wine Awards 2014.
Solera 1847 Cream is an outstanding example of the versatility of Sherry. This sweet Oloroso was crafted from the finest clusters of Palomino Fino and Pedro Ximénez harvested from the vineyards of the renowned Andalusian winery González Byass.
The two varieties used in Solera 1847 Cream were vinified separately and, after aging in the same way, in a solera of American oak casks exposed to the air, the final blend underwent a minimum aging of 8 years, following the traditional solera system.
The result is none other than an intense and velvety wine from the D.O. Jerez-Xérès-Sherry, which, due to its undeniable quality, has garnered numerous awards, including gold medals at the Vinduero 2015, Vinhos do Brasil 2014, and Sakura Japan Women’s Wine Awards 2014. Enjoy it on its own as an aperitif or paired with desserts.

In 1835, the entrepreneur Manuel María González Angel arrived in Jerez with the intention of doing business with the growing demand for Sherry from England. He acquired a small winery that, by 1955, was overwhelmed by its success. Manuel María González partnered with his agent in England, Mr. Robert Blake Byass, thus founding the company González-Byassz. Today, it is the fifth generation of the González family who lead this family heritage business.
Currently, the González Byass group is made up of a wide range of wineries producing in the most emblematic and important denominations of origin in Spain (with Beronia in the D.O.Ca. Rioja; Viñas del Vero in the D.O. Somontano; Vilarnau in Catalonia; Finca Constancia in Toledo, Finca Moncloa in Cádiz, Pazos de Lusco in the D.O. Rías Baixas, and the Tío Pepe winery in Jerez).Among the products offered by the group, the emblematic wines of Jerez, their cavas, brandies, anises, liqueurs, gin, oils, vinegars, spirits, among others, stand out.
