In the heart of Jerez, cradle of wine and distillation, lies the González Byass distillery, guardian of a tradition that has made Lepanto the only brandy produced entirely in this land. Its story began in 1909, when the house registered the brand as a tribute to the Battle of Lepanto — a symbol of nobility and determination that continues to inspire every bottle.
Lepanto is an exclusive Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez, crafted from Palomino Fino grapes and double-distilled in Charentais copper stills, following a unique artisanal method unparalleled anywhere in the world. It is aged in American oak casks that previously held Sherry wines, using the traditional criaderas and solera system. The result is a liquid of great finesse and complexity, expressing the soul of this land and of those who have dedicated their lives to preserving it.
The current range reflects the richness of this legacy: from the classic expression of Lepanto Solera Gran Reserva to the editions aged in Oloroso Viejo and Pedro Ximénez casks, and culminating in Aurum, its most exclusive jewel. Each embodies the essence of a process that combines patience, excellence, and respect for origin.
Today, Lepanto is recognised as the Brandy de Jerez par excellence. Its bottles, inspired by historic designs from the Royal Glass Factory of La Granja, bear witness to a craft passed down from generation to generation. More than a spirit, Lepanto is memory, identity, and the pride of a land that has mastered the art of turning time into elegance.
Lepanto, the greatness of Jerez in every glass.
Made from Palomino Fino grapes and double-distilled in Charentais stills, this Brandy de Jerez is aged for 12 years in American oak casks: 9 in those that once held Tío Pepe Fino and 3 in Oloroso Matusalem. The result is an elegant and complex brandy, with notes of dried fruits, vanilla, and caramel, perfectly balanced between intensity and smoothness.
