Gonzalez Byass Elegante Cream

Gonzalez Byass Elegante Cream is a blend of Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez Sherries, aged in a solera system to achieve a smooth, well-balanced profile. The wine undergoes oxidative aging in American oak casks, giving it richness and complexity. This blend is carefully crafted to combine the dry, nutty character of Oloroso with the sweet, raisiny notes of Pedro Ximenez.

Bouquet:
The nose is deep and inviting, with aromas of rich caramel, toasted nuts, and dried figs. There are also hints of dark chocolate and subtle spices, creating a complex and layered bouquet that draws you in.

Palate:
On the palate, Elegante Cream is full-bodied and smooth, with flavours of roasted almonds, caramelised sugar, and ripe dried fruits. The sweetness is balanced by a soft nuttiness, with a lingering finish that leaves a warm, comforting aftertaste.

Food Pairing:
This Sherry pairs beautifully with rich desserts such as fruitcakes, nutty pastries, or chocolate fondue. It also complements cheeses like aged Gouda or a selection of roasted nuts, making it perfect for an after-dinner treat.

Cellaring:
Ready to enjoy now and will keep for a few weeks after opening if stored in a cool, dark place.
