Montilla Moriles Bodegas Toro Albala Amontillado Solera 35 ans 1945

The wine

Pedro Ximenez is sometimes known as P.X. It is used in Xérès to produce sweet wines. Although it starts out white, over the years it develops an almost black colour. This was matured for 35 years. On the nose, white pepper, cloves, nutmeg, dried fruit, smoke and tobacco. On the palate, there is an excellent freshness on an otherwise warm finish lifted by notes of dried fruits. A superb wine.
