This dry white wine is made entirely from late-harvested Pedro Ximénez grapes. It has exceptional complexity thanks to slow fermentation in French oak barrels, with the pressed grapes gradually added so that fermentation can be completed without leaving any residual sugar. It is then matured on its lees with gentle stirring for six months. The over-ripe grapes bring a concentration of intense aromas and flavours. This meticulous winemaking process results in a complex wine that improves every year and can easily be kept for over 15 years under optimal conditions.

Nose : On the nose, this wine is marked by French oak, softened by notes of sultanas and dried plums. There is no perceptible oxidation, revealing a harmonious aromatic palette.

Palate : On the palate, the alcoholic sensation is very light despite its 14% alcohol content. The wine is structured and stimulates all the organoleptic senses. From the peak of acidity to the aftertaste of wood and ripe fruit, this wine is perfectly balanced.

Overall : Persistent and refined.
