Product Description
Details
Crafted by Bodegas Alvear, Alvear Pedro Ximénez de Añada is a young varietal unfortified sweet Spanish white wine made from Pedro Ximénez grapes coming from a single vintage.
The wine was made through the dessication of the grapes, which lost up to 65% of its water content. Naturally sun-dried, they were subsequently pressed twice in order to obtain a highly-concentrated wine must.
Finally, Alvear Pedro Ximénez de Añada 2018, from the Andalusian region of Montilla-Moriles, was blended and aged for 12 months.
Interestingly, the 2011 vintage of this Alvear PX de Añada was given no less than 100 points, a perfect score, by Robert Parker.
