Tasting notes Álvaro Domecq Pedro Ximenez Viña 98

(75 cl.). 5 años en botas jerezanas.

Álvaro Domecq Pedro Ximenez Viña 98 presents a lustrous chestnut hue. On the nose, aromas of raisins are distinctly prominent, accompanied by subtle woody notes. On the palate, its exquisite raisin flavour stands out, sweet yet not cloying, demonstrating a fine balance between acidity and sugar, leaving a woody aftertaste. The persistence in the mouth is remarkable, offering a comprehensive and harmonious experience.

About Álvaro Domecq Pedro Ximenez Viña 98

D. Álvaro, founder of the esteemed Jerez winery Bodegas Álvaro Domecq, has always harboured a profound affection and gratitude for his horses, who have been companions and accomplices in his successes. This extraordinary connection serves as the foundation for his new family of wines, an authentic collection of family portraits that pays tribute to the most cherished and significant horses of his career.

One of them, Álvaro Domecq Pedro Ximénez Viña 98, is crafted from pedro ximénez grapes, which, after harvest, are sun-dried to allow the grapes to become raisined, intensifying their raisin-like flavour. From there, the juice is extracted, and a slight fermentation begins, which is immediately halted with the addition of grape spirit until it reaches an alcohol content of 15% vol.

The ageing process is conducted through oxidative maturation, using the traditional Jerez solera and criaderas system. This process is carried out in American oak casks of approximately 500 litres capacity for only five years, ensuring that the ageing is not excessively prolonged, thereby preserving and highlighting the intense aromas and flavours characteristic of the raisined grapes.

The result is Álvaro Domecq Pedro Ximénez Viña 98, a young and vibrant pedro ximénez, retaining the freshness of the sun-dried fruit and the authentic character of the great wines of Jerez. A perfect fusion of history, emotion, and excellence.
