WINE DESCRIPTION
Toro Albalá Don PX Gran Reserva is a highly sought-after wine produced by Bodegas Toro Albalá in the Montilla-Moriles appellation of Spain. This wine is made from the Pedro Ximénez grape variety, which is grown in the unique soil and climate conditions of the region. The vineyards are located at high altitudes, which allows for slow ripening and concentration of flavors. The winemaking process involves sun-drying the grapes to increase their sugar content before fermentation and aging in oak barrels for over 20 years. The resulting wine is a rich, sweet, and complex dessert wine with notes of raisins, figs, and caramel. Its exceptional quality and unique style make it a must-try for any wine enthusiast.
