Alvear Solera Pedro Ximénez Sherry PX 1927, made from the best grape in the area. The grapes are harvested at a high level of ripeness, after which they are placed on mats in the sun to dry into raisins. This drying gives a very high sugar content compared to liquid, hence the higher alcohol strength and degree of sweetness. After the careful pressing, a quantity of alcohol is added to the must to stop the fermentation and retain the sweetness in the wine. The wine is then transferred to the so-called Solera and Criadera system, which is a special but actually very simple maturation system; several rows of dishes are placed on top of each other.

There is a passage between the individual rows of dishes. The wine is filled in the upper barrels, while it is tapped from the lower barrel. In this way, there is always a bit of the oldest vintage in the final bottling. Alvear Pedro Ximenez 1927 was thus started in 1927, and the wine therefore contains a small amount of Pedro Ximenez from 1927. This creates a high degree of stability and complexity in the wine.

Server for: Desserts, fruits and cakes or pour it over the ice cream which will have a fantastic taste. Can also be used for a large selection of blue cheeses.

Serving temperature: 8-10°C
