Pedro Ximenez Triana Vinos Viejos de Hidalgo 30 Year Old VORS 50cl

Pedro Ximénez Triana Vinos Viejos de Hidalgo 30 Year Old VORS 50cl

Grape: 100% Pedro Ximénez, 450g/L residual sugar

Very dark with iodine intensity, leaving a very dense tear on the glass and an almost amber hue. Very intense and complex, typical notes of nuts, toffee and noble oak. Dense, creamy and powerful, opulently sweet and intense to the palate. 

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"The NV Pedro Ximenez Triana VORS from sun-dried Pedro Ximenez grapes has 15% alcohol and 450 grams of residual sugar. Dark, opaque mahogany color, dense, motor-oil thick, it has a compact nose of roasted coffee, chocolate, prunes and noble woods. It is full-bodied with a velvety texture, managing to keep the freshness. There is an ice cream popular in the south of Spain made with rum and raisins, and this wine reminds me of it. In any case, it manages to balance concentration and old age with elegance and drinkability, in a difficult-to-obtain combination. 1,000 half-liter bottles are filled each year."

93/100 points, Luis Gutiérrez, WINE ADVOCATE, August 2013

"Archetypal PX, dense, syrupy and thick, showing complex and intense aromas of iodine, figs, chocolate and caramel. Overwhelming unctuous texture, blockbuster wine and immeasurable aftertaste." Drink 2016-2040

18/20 points, Ferran Centelles, JancisRobinson.com, June 2016

A wine from the Pedro Ximenez grapes which are first left in the sun to become raisins before pressing. Aged for more than 30 years in the solera system. Matured in butts of American oak, using the oxidative ageing process for over 30 years, to give the wine its complexity and the concentration of aromas and full rich nutty flavours. Before bottling, the wine is stabilised using a cold treatment process and filtered. 

Best served at room temperature or slightly chilled. At it's most indulgent poured over vanilla ice cream.
