Description

This Gran Reserva 1999 from the D.O.P. Montilla-Moriles is an elegant wine, elaborated with Pedro Ximénez grapes harvested in mid-August and laid under the sun for 7 to 9 days to concentrate all their sugars. After the press, it was left to rest for 12 months and, when the period came to an end, it was stored in American oak butts to age for over 20 years.

Don PX are Toro Albala's signature wine. Each is taken care of with exclusivity, from the harvest to the raisining, and thus obtaining a unique personality.

TASTING NOTES
Dark mahogany in colour, with viscosity in the glass. Aromas of coffee, dark chocolate, raisined fruit, grapes,plums, dried apricots, hints of cinnamon, a little balsamic and citrus, orange dominate the nose. On the palate it is sweet perfectly balanced with citrus acidity and a long persistent finish.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Excellent with dark chocolate, blue cheese, desserts and exotic fruits.

Reviews

***93 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate***
Curiously enough, the 1999 Don PX, which has 17% alcohol and 402 grams of sugar, feels lighter and less concentrated than the 2002 I tasted next to it. And the wine seems more perfumed, even with a floral touch that at times reminded me of Moscatel, and it has some sweet spices, vanilla and cinnamon. It's tasty, showy and easy to drink, velvety and seamless, with a soft texture. 12,000 bottles and 20,000 half bottles were filled at different times, but these wines evolve at a very slow pace and there should be no difference between bottlings. The price is for a 750-milliliter bottle. Sept 2022 Luis Gutierrez
