Alvear PX Dulce Viejo 2000 Dulce

Alvear, Montilla-Moriles

Dark and dense mahogany color. Complex and intense notes of roasted coffee, raisins, nuts, wooden furniture. It shows incredible density and weight on the palate but feels like velvet. Extremely long finish (preserve fruit, chocolate, nuts and almonds) that persist for a few minutes. It comes from sun-dried grapes and ages in barrels which are smaller (250-300 litres) than what's customary (500-600 litres) in the area. This makes for a faster development of the wine. 18.0 points
