Pedro Ximénez Solera 1927

Wine Making
The grapes are harvested when have reached their optimum degree of maturity. At this point they are spread out on mats to dry in the sun until they become raisins. The raisins are then pressed, to deliver an intensely rich must to which grape alcohol is added. This prevents fermentation and loss of sweetness. The “Solera System” for this wine was started in 1927.
Tasting Notes
This wine has an dense, dark mahogany colouration. It has a deep rich nose with aromas of prunes and chocolate. It is a naturally sweet wine, with an intense, sumptuous palate, with rich concentrated fruit succulence and a long finish.

Serving Temperature: 10ºC-12ºC, or drink with Ice.
