The wine

Don PX Gran Reserva is produced with raisined grapes that are sun-dried (off the vine and on mats) for a few days before pressing to make them more concentrated. This wine is also matured in oak barrels for 25 years. Its colour is so dark it is almost black, and its nose is very intense, with cocoa, tobacco, liquorice and rosemary aromas, and a subtle hint of vanilla and cinnamon. The elegant palate is both mellow and bitter, with delicate woody notes and a sublime, long and spicy finish.
