Bodegas Toro Albala Don PX Gran Reserva 1988 is an absolute belter. It is a lusciously sweet wine made exclusively from Pedro Ximenez grapes grown in Montilla-Moriles. The wine has a beautiful, almost mahogany colour and sways slowly in the glass. Dried fruit, raisins and figs dominate with fresher dried peach, apricot and orange-peel notes along with darker caramel, chocolate. tobacco and spiced notes. Beautifully fresh on the finish with the perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. World glass wine and something everyone should try once in their life.
Bodegas Toro Albala is an iconic winery based in the Montilla-Moriles region of southern Spain, which mainly produces sweet wines, using the same techniques deployed in the more famous Sherry region of Jerez. The winery was put on the world map by Antonio Sanchez when he took over in the 1970’s. His trust in tradition, vintage bottlings and on sourcing grapes from the best sites in Sierre de Montilla and Moriles Altos has paid dividends over the years. Their stand out wines are their vintage aged PX’s which over time, develop into the most wonderfully complex and amazing sweet wines you’ll find anywhere in the world.
