On the palate, this sherry is sweet and velvety, revealing notes of raisins, figs, and dates. These fruity notes are underscored by hints of roasted coffee. After pressing and fermentation of the grape must in modern stainless steel tanks, the traditional aging of the wines begins in approximately 600-liter wooden casks. Before the wine enters the casks, it is fortified with clear brandy to an alcohol content of 17% ABV. At this alcohol concentration, the yeasts die and settle at the bottom of the fermentation tanks. The subsequent maturation takes place using the so-called \u0026quot;Solera system,\u0026quot; named after the bottom row of casks in a pyramid-shaped barrel cellar. The amount of wine drawn from the Solera is replaced from the cask above, with the top row being replenished with fresh distillate. Over the years, the sherries are transferred from one cask to the next, thus preserving their typical character for decades.","brand":"Osborne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52695083614544,"sku":"V00131","price":13.57,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/Vinoscout_Sherry-Pedro-Ximenez-1827.webp?v=1771238589"},{"product_id":"very-old-harvest-pedro-ximenez-d-o","title":"Very Old Harvest Pedro Ximenez DO","description":"\u003cp\u003ePedro Ximénez from the Ximénez-Spínola estate is concentrated sweetness with depth, not a one-dimensional dessert wine.

Sanchez Romate, producer of the world-renowned Cardenal Mendoza brandy, embodies tradition. The bodega was founded in 1781 by Juan Sánchez de la Torre and remains family-owned to this day. Since then, it has consistently produced top-quality spirits using the latest technological standards, while remaining deeply committed to traditional methods. As a result, the house was appointed supplier to the British House of Lords in London in 1909 and to the Pope in Rome in 1917. The bodega is located in Jerez de la Frontera and owns its own vineyards, some with very old vines. Sanchez Romate has been producing sherry for over 200 years and, like few others, has access to rare, long-aged batches. Sanchez Romate now shares this wealth with the world in small quantities. For several years, the bodega has been bottling older batches as Reserva Especial. We are fortunate to be able to offer you this treasure. Some of the products in the Reserva Especial line are aged for more than 20 years (Amontillado, Oloroso). They are incredibly rich and intense. Romate Reserva Especial is paradise for sherry lovers.","brand":"Unbekannter Hersteller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53152180207952,"sku":"VJ1703","price":24.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/210009.jpg?v=1781611638"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/collections\/grape-of-pedro-ximenez-variaty-on-a-vine.png?v=1783197939","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/collections\/pedro-ximenez.oembed","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
