Description

The 1988 Don PX from Toro Albala is an extremely concentrated and syrupy wine. Currants, raisins, caramel and orange peel. Same on the palate with some coffee candy as well. A beautifully clean and clear PX with great sweetness, but very nicely balanced by beautiful acidity. Suitable for long ageing. 2040+

Reviews

91-93 Points Wine Advocate by Robert Parker
Tasting old sweet PX from Toro Albalá is like a roller coaster ride, which started with the 1988 Don PX Gran Reserva, what for them is their more commercial range, a wine that at close to 30 years of age is still unbottled. They compared it with the 1981 (which I never tasted), because it was a warm year with an exceptional harvest. It has 16.4% alcohol, 340 grams of residual sugar and mixes notes of youth, raisins, figs and dates with other aromas of a long aging like tar, graphite, chocolate and licorice. It doesn't feel too sweet but compared with the other wines tasted next to it, it doesn't have the complexity or depth. They expect to produce 25,200 bottles and 36,000 half bottles of this.
