    Heritage & Distinction
    The 1977 Don PX Convento Selección is a celebrated vintage release in Toro Albalá’s elite Convento Selección series. Made from Pedro Ximénez grapes sun‑dried and aged through an oxidative regime in seasoned American oak, this 1977 edition remains a benchmark for maturity in Montilla‑Moriles PX. Critics have awarded it 96 points, placing it among the finest wines of Andalucia and reflecting its remarkable balance of heritage and intensity

    Colour & Aromatic Complexity
    In the glass, it presents a deep dark mahogany hue with thick, slow‑moving legs that signal its viscosity and age. The bouquet is richly layered, offering decadent aromas of dried figs, raisins, toffee and caramel, with nuances of roasted coffee, burnt sugar, and warm spice. Subtle hints of licorice, tobacco, and aged balsamic weave through the sweetness, creating an evocative and profound aromatic profile.

    Palate & Harmony
    On the palate, this PX is voluptuous yet elegantly structured. A concentrated sweetness—evoking molasses and dark chocolate—is beautifully delivered alongside vibrant acidity and restrained bitterness, lending freshness and precision to each sip. Rich flavours of prunes, burnt sugar, espresso, and dried orange peel interlace with an underlying rancio character. The finish is impressively long and warming, lingering with echoes of spice and aged wood.

    Serving & Legacy
    Bottled in a full-size 75 cl format, the 1977 Convento Selección is ideal for sharing on memorable occasions—or savouring as a collector’s gem. Serve well‑chilled (~12 °C) in small portions to appreciate its depth over time. It pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, mature blue cheeses, or citrus‑infused desserts, though it stands powerfully on its own as a contemplative digestif. A true expression of aged Spanish PX at its finest.
