Vintage: NV
D.O.: Montilla-Moriles Grape Variety: 100% Pedro Ximénez
Produced from the best musts of the Pedro Ximenez grapes, the Fino C.B. is the flagship of Alvear and omnipresent wherever Andalusians meet together for a yarn. A typical product of that special process which takes place in the cask under a veil of yeast, the “crianza en flor”. C.B. comes from Carlos Billanueva, the cellar master who in the early XIXth century marked the casks containing the best wines with his initials.
Tasting Notes: Colour: Subtle delicate wine with pale straw colour. Nose: Evocative of the floral tones , this wine presents a delicate almondy, salty, fresh flavour Palate: Tangy with a refreshing finish and softness which makes it delightfully easy to drink.
Technical Notes: - Alcohol (%): 15% - Acidity (g/l tartaric acid): 4.5 - Sugar (g/l): dry
Food Pairing: Perfect as a chilled aperitif with tapas, shellfish, fish, cheese, olives- snacks, hors d`oeuvere and salads. It is one of the rare wines which will happily partner dishes containing vinegar.
