This is a dessert wine/sherry. Made from the Pedro Ximénez grape. Brown in color. The nose smells like a tootsie-roll which is nice. Chocolate, confectionery sugar. This pours like motor oil; thick and viscous. On the palate, the tootsie-roll quality continues thru. Slightly sweet. Good acidity. No need for food, this is a dessert on its own. It is a tough food match. This wine is made from a Solera method with theoretically some portion of the wine dating to 1927. It is unclear how much and this tastes young. That said, for $25, this is a stellar dessert wine that is fun and delicious. They have been releasing this for at least a decade. Of course, being a solera, there are differences in each release. Some are better than others although they have all been great.
