The grapes Pedro Ximenez are laid out in the sun for several days. Fermentation is stopped, in order to keep the natural sugar of the grapes. Afterwards this wine is fortified & then aged in the 'solera & criaderas' system. Dark mahogany in colour & viscous. Redolent of ripe fruit in the mouth, dried figs & roasted coffee beans. Very sweet, velvety & soft in the mouth, with an extremely long aftertaste. Food pairings: Ideal over vanilla ice-cream, with dark chocolate & blue cheeses such as Cabrales. It is also an excellent digestif.
