Alvear Solera 1927 Pedro Ximenez NV

Montilla-Moriles, SpainLove love the unabashed tradition of this wine. Unapologetically and confidently a bit of a conundrum; exceptionally sweet, and overtly salty. Fish sauce and soy, with delicate floral tea leaves. Browned walnuts, hazelnut and nut oil, alongside burnished oranges and grassy earth. Baked figs, coffee and cloves linger far past a single sip. Potent, savoury and unforgettable. Try with vanilla bean ice cream and cracked black pepper. Fantastic value.Tasted: 05 September 2014Tasted by: Prices:
