Gonzalez Byass Del Duque Amontillado Sherry / 30 Year Old

Isla McCallister - Great with cheese

7/10

The guy at my local wine shop recommended this when I said I wanted something different for a cheese night. It's dry and nutty with a long finish that just keeps going. Really enjoyed it but I think you need to be in the right mood for sherry — not an everyday pour.

Yasmine Najjar - Good but not really my thing

6/10

Got this as a gift and it's clearly well made. Very concentrated and nutty, almost savoury? The finish hangs around forever which is nice. I just don't think I'm a sherry person tbh. If you like this style though it's probably excellent.

Henrik Larsen - Seriously impressive stuff

8/10

Bought this for my dad's 60th and we ended up finishing the bottle between us. The nuttiness is incredible — like toasted almonds but way more complex. At £29 for a 30-year-old sherry this is genuinely a bargain. Will be buying again.

Amira Benali - Absolute stunner

9/10

I keep a few sherries around and this is the best amontillado I've had at this price point. The intensity hits you straight away — proper nutty concentrated aromas. Everything just works together perfectly. Genuinely can't believe this is under £30 for 30 years of ageing.

Elena Morozova - Perfect for cold evenings

7/10

Saw this recommended online somewhere and grabbed one. The nose is really something — you can smell it from across the table, all toasted nuts and richness. Goes down dangerously easy for 20%. Had it with some dark chocolate and salted almonds and it was spot on.

Rosa Paredes - Lovely after-dinner sipper

7/10

Had this at a restaurant in Spain and tracked down a bottle when I got home. It's beautifully balanced — the alcohol doesn't burn at all despite being 20%. Really nice with some manchego and almonds. Poured small glasses and it lasted us a few evenings.

Herbert Muller - Where has this been all my life

8/10

I always thought sherry was what my nan drank at Christmas but this is something else entirely. Rich and layered with loads going on — nuts, dried fruit, a bit of salt maybe? Thirty years in barrel and you can taste every one of them. Under £30 feels like a steal.

Ethan Cooper - Bit niche for casual drinking

6/10

Tried this at a tasting event and bought a bottle. It's clearly quality — very clean finish and the acidity keeps it fresh. But I find myself reaching for it less than I expected. It's more of a special occasion thing for me. Would probably score higher if I drank sherry more often.
