Availability: In stock
Produced by Estones Vins, also known as Mas Sersal, Estones PX is a rather unique Spanish white wine from the DO Terra Alta.
The reason? It is one of the very few varietal Pedro Ximénez wines made outside of Sherry country.
The 60-year-old vines were harvested by hand. Once in the cellar, they were macerated with the skins and fermented in stainless steel tanks for 36 days. After completing malolactic fermentation, this white wine from Terra Alta was aged for 6 months on lees.
Finally, the white wine Estones PX 2019 was stabilized, clarified and filtered before bottling.
Intense and characterful, this organic white wine is an extremely interesting example of the Pedro Ximénez variety.

Nose | This varietal Pedro Ximénez from Terra Alta has an intriguing nose. Ripe peaches and apricots, together with some earthy remembrances, a leesy note, and some brushstrokes of honey, pastry and aromatic herbs. |
Palate | Smooth and creamy, this wine from Mas Sersal has a distinctively saline note and a crisp acidity. All in all, a rather original profile. Long finish with some earthy and herbal remembrances. |
Our personal opinion | The white wine Estones PX 2019 will pair excellently with smoked salmon and creamy cheeses. |
