Fernando de Castilla's 20 year old Pedro Ximenez PX is a fortified wine with 450g/l sugar. It has a rich, intense flavor with notes of coffee, liquorice, sweet tobacco, prunes, figs, raisins, tea, and a lightness and delicacy. This sherry is ideal with chocolates, chocolate-based desserts, ice creams, pastries, and certain cheeses. It's best served at 10-12 degrees Centigrade. The Pedro Ximénez grapes are harvested and dried for up to 2 days in the hot September Spanish sun. Fernando de Castilla deals only in prestigious, premium wines, bottled without blending, cold stabilization, or filtration to preserve their subtlety, purity, and distinctive aromas.
