Pedro Ximenez
Filter
Pedro Ximénez is a white wine grape variety that is also known by the terms “Pedro Gimenez” or “PX.” This variety is cultivated in South America and is said to have been introduced in the Canary Islands before being transported to Germany. It is said that the variety was introduced to Jerez by a soldier names Pedro Ximenez, who served in the Navy of King Charles the Fifth. The “Pedro Gimenez” variety is the most planted grape in Argentina and is used to craft fortified wines in the region of Jerez. This variety however, is different from the variety grown in Spain. The grape type is grown in Australia for Apera wines and can be blended to craft dessert wines. It is also used in Chile, Spain and is grown sparsely in California. The Pedro Ximénez variety features small round berries that are thin-skinned. Pedro Ximenez in Argentina produces fruit earlier in the year and contains leaves with three lobes. Wine made from the Pedro Ximenez grape typically pairs well with sweet desserts, such as rice pudding, caramel, an ice cream sundae, or Asian black sticky rice. The wines crafted typically use a process of drying out the grapes until they are almost raisin-like, and then taking the juice through other fermentation and aging processes. The taste of Pedro Ximenez features figs, dried fruits, or toffee.

Wine produced from grapes coming from the best vineyards from Sierra de Montilla and Moriles Alto (top quality area)
Aged in American Oak for 8 years
Color: Amber color with some topaz reflections.
An intense and elegant expression from the oxidative ageing process, with some dry fruits characters. The aromas are reminiscent of its ancestor - Fino. Velvety, warm, round and well-structured on the palate with almond flavors. A well-balanced wine.
Wonderful as an aperitif and to accompany soups and consommés. Extremely good where its distinctive taste adds unique character to a wide range of dishes. Try also with marinated meats and selfish as aperitif.

Opulent floral top notes carry you into an opaque purple core, imparting aromas of black currants, dark red cherry coulis, cigar box, and allspice berries. Powerful yet soft tannins are balanced with a delightful freshness of acidity. The palate is silky with nuanced flavors of cassis, ripe blackberry, and Morello cherry. The long finish invites you to discover the wine’s evolving layers.
Review:
This is, as usual, a beauty, perhaps more so thanks to a great vintage. It is classically Napa Valley, and classically “house styled” by Aron Weinkauf, with black and blue fruit, supple, approachable tannin structure and great depth of aroma and flavor. That said, keep in mind that this isn’t the winery flagship offering. Even in this price range Lyndenhurst is always a solid value, and is so again – maybe even a little more than usual. Decant well if you crack into this in the near term, or age it for the long term. Contains 10.6% Merlot, 3.8% Petit Verdot, 3.5% Cabernet Franc and 2.9% Malbec. (Rich Cook)

A juicy red with black currants and balsamic. Bark and mushroom. Iodine, too. Medium body, creamy texture that tightens at the end. An energy and firmness in the finish.

Bellevue Cotes de Bordeaux-Castillon Vieilles Vignes 2020 is 65% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc.
Average age of the vines is 40 years old.
The wine offers a rich and intense bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry and strawberry.
It is smooth and full in the mouth with a velvety texture. Acidity combined with firm but well-integrated tannins are a fine supporting cast to the black fruit flavors at the end.
