Montilla-Moriles, SpainConsistency is a good thing and Alvear has little problem with this product over the years. Born of the Solera system this D.O. Montilla-Moriles is made with 100 percent pedro Ximénez in a medium dry style that combines the development of a Fino, aged under a blanket of Flor and the oxidative aging of an Oloroso. It is slightly sweetened and stays in a Solera system of 500L old American oak casks for more than 6 years.Expect a nutty, figgy, cedar nose flecked with dried herb. The attack is full and slightly sweet as it spills across the palate with just the right amount of acidity. Walnuts, orange peel, soy and tobacco flavours give it a complex flavour with fine intensity. Great with soup or cheeses. Super value, again.Tasted: 05 April 2015Tasted by: Prices:

Montilla-Moriles, SpainLike the last tasting, very nutty, creamy, buttery, dried fig, cedar, dried herb aromas. Full, round, slightly sweet and warm palate with juicy acidity and full texture. Walnut, cedar, spicy, orange peel, butter, rancio, soy and tobacco flavours. Good flavour intensity and balanced to have with seafood soup or sheep cheeses. A richer style using Pedro Ximénez as a base. Fantastic value.Tasted: 27 March 2013Tasted by: Prices:
