Description
González Byass Néctar Pedro Ximenez NV 375ml is a sweet Pedro Ximénez sherry from González Byass, the Jerez bodega founded in 1835. The Pedro Ximénez grapes are dried in the sun before pressing so that their sugars concentrate, and the wine is then aged in American oak through the traditional criaderas and solera system.

Serve it slightly chilled in a small wine glass, either with dessert or as dessert on its own. It pairs well with vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate, blue cheese or a bowl of nuts, and it is often poured straight over the ice cream.

Very dark ebony in colour, it typically shows prunes, figs, dates, honey, caramel and liquorice on the nose. The palate is velvety and sweet, with enough acidity to balance the richness and a long finish of raisins and dates.
A good pick for anyone who likes a rich dessert wine or wants a simple, sweet way to finish a meal.
