Don PX Young
Our beginnings date back to 1844, when the family founded a small winery in an old mill known as La Noria, at the foot of the Aguilar de la Frontera Castle. At that time, the wine was made in a rudimentary way and was sold in the family tavern.
In 1922, after several generations, José María Toro Albalá acquired and restored the town's old power plant with the idea of moving the winery and storing wines so that they would age for years and become true oenological jewels. Thus, Bodegas Toro Albalá was established, and a true feat began at that time and a whole philosophy that we have preserved throughout time.With the generational change in the sixties, Antonio Sánchez gave an important boost to the winery in search of differentiation and to express its own personality, betting on the vintage system and obtaining unmistakable wines. Today, Bodegas Toro Albalá is considered one of the 100 Spanish Gold Bodegas and is found on the best tables around the world.
Sweet and velvety wine, made with Pedro Ximénez grapes picked in mid-August and laid out in the sun for about seven days, to concentrate all their sugars. After pressing, a sweet must was obtained and it was left to rest for more than a year in stainless steel tanks. A natural jewel full of sensations that seduces those who enjoy it.
Don PX are our specialty. We take care of each of them exclusively, from harvest to raisining, giving them a unique personality.TASTING NOTES:
- View: Striking amber with coppery edges.
- Aroma: Medium intensity in which the aromas of raisins, figs and honey are the protagonists, together with a liqueur background and a hint of caramel and the vegetable freshness of the stem.
- Taste: Sweet, silky, with moderate acidity and final vegetable bitterness that balances the sweetness and fills it with sensations.
PAIRING:
It is an excellent wine to enjoy alone or with desserts, blue cheeses, dehydrated fruits and pastries. Serve between 8ºC and 10ºC.
