Alvear Pedro Ximénez de Añada 375 mL
Spanish Dessert
Luminous amber in the glass, this naturally sweet Pedro Ximénez is rich with raisin, date, fig, honey, quince and citrus preserve. Its dense, silky texture is refreshed by gentle acidity, leaving a broad and persistent finish without heaviness. Made from sun-dried fruit from a single harvest in Montilla-Moriles, it is rewarding with foie gras, blue cheese, nuts, vanilla ice cream or fruit-based desserts. Serve lightly chilled.
Alvear Fino Montilla-Moriles NV
Spanish Fortified
Straw colour accompanies an assertive, yeasty aroma with a crusty-bread note. The palate is clean and tangy, with a refreshing finish and a soft texture. Pedro Ximénez wine is aged biologically under a clear layer of flor yeast, which protects it from oxidation and gives the style its characteristic aroma and flavour. The wine contains fourteen-point-five percent alcohol.
Alvear Amontillado Montilla-Moriles
Spanish Fortified
Dry and light-bodied, this Amontillado combines toffee, butter pecan and apricot with burnt banana, spice and almond paste. A mild mushroom note and dried-fruit character add savoury depth, while the finish is nutty. Made from Pedro Ximénez, the wine spends about eight years in a solera system. It comes from Montilla-Moriles and is bottled at seventeen percent alcohol.
