DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Emilio Lustau is one of the leading Sherry houses in Jerez. San Emilio is its Solera Reserva Pedro Ximenez, made from Pedro Ximenez grapes dried in the sun to concentrate their sugar before pressing. The wine then ages for about 12 years. It is bottled at 17% alcohol with over 400 grams of sugar per liter.
Look for a dark mahogany color and aromas of figs, raisins and dates, with a full, long palate. It is extremely sweet, and a thread of acidity keeps it from feeling heavy. If you have only had young PX, this one shows how much depth the extra time in the solera adds.
Serve it slightly cool, around 55-60F, in a small wine glass. Pour it over vanilla ice cream, next to blue cheese or with dark chocolate, or sip it after dinner. An opened bottle keeps for weeks.
Bottle size: 750ml
