Tucked in the gentle rolling hills of the picturesque town of Montilla, Bodegas Alvear was founded by Diego de Alvear y Escalera in 1729; making it the oldest winery in the Andalusia region. One of the most esteemed and recognized producers, Alvear has been a family owned winery for over 300 years and is now in its eighth generation. With each generation the family has maintained the historic property, while at the same time, kept up with any technical advancements in winemaking.
Tasting Notes
An intensely rich wine, naturally sweet with dense dark berry and raisinated fruit character. Full-bodied & lush with never ending depth, the Alvear PX Sherry has a long-lasting finish.
Method
Made from 100% Pedro Ximenez grapes that are laid out on mats to dry in the sun and concentrate their sweetness and fruit attributes. Aged in American oak barrels, this wine is aged for 6 years in the traditional Solera System.
