Aprašymas

Wine is a blend of two Solera's, one launched in 1964 in the dry oxidative Oloros style, the other in 1918, which holds sweet wine for an average age of 25 years. Majority of the wine is taken from Oloros solera mixed with sweet wine and bottled in separate barrels after a year. Dark amber color. Intense nose with aromas of woodwork. Plums and raisins also appear in the background. Full, resounding, balanced on the palate, with a soft aftertaste of natural sweetness that dissipates with a high volatile degree typical of its old age. Intense on the palate without being heavy, with smoky touches and soft toasted notes. Surprisingly dry without “planking” and finely almond-shaped.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 10-12 °C with spicy Asian dishes or refreshing desserts.

Despite its centuries-old tradition, Ximénez Spínola is not a typical sherry bodega. It is still controlled by the descendants of the family who founded the winery in 1729 -something increasingly unusual in the area- and all its wines are made exclusively with Pedro Ximénez, in an area where Palomino is the dominant grape variety.José Antonio Zarzana represents the ninth generation. He is focused on quality and exclusivity - only limited and numbered editions from its annual solera selection are sold so it is arguably the winery with the smallest production in Marco de Jerez.
