Toro Albalá Don PX 1970 Convento Selección

The Toro Albalá Don PX 1970 Convento Selección is an extraordinary, monumental sweet wine from Montilla-Moriles, made from sun-dried Pedro Ximénez grapes and aged for decades. This is not a wine for quick impressions, but a contemplative experience: intense, layered, and remarkably refined. A rare bottle where time, concentration, and balance converge.

Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep opaque ebony brown with mahogany and iodine-like reflections.

Aroma

Profoundly complex aromas of raisin, fig loaf, date, and prune syrup, layered with coffee, cocoa, liquorice, tobacco, balsamic notes, and spice.

Taste

Exceptionally concentrated and silky, offering intense flavours of dried fruit, molasses, dark chocolate, and mocha. Despite its immense richness, the wine remains strikingly vibrant, with natural freshness providing precision and balance.

Finish

Extraordinarily long and layered, with lingering notes of cocoa, coffee, raisin, and a subtle saline depth.

Food Pairing

Magnificent with dark chocolate, coffee- or cocoa-based desserts, blue cheeses, or enjoyed entirely on its own as a meditative after-dinner wine.
