Exceptional Harvest by Ximénez-Spínola, a truly exceptional dry white Pedro Ximénez. Made with overripe grapes, it offers intensity, elegance, and unusual aromatic complexity. Ideal for those seeking unique and authentic wines.
Recommended pairing: Perfect with foie gras, cured cheeses, spicy dishes , Asian cuisine, or creamy rice dishes. It can also be enjoyed on its own, as a meditation wine, or to open a special meal.
“Ripe grapes enclosed in a bottle.”
This is how the Ximénez-Spínola winery defines this unique, limited-production white wine, made exclusively with Pedro Ximénez grapes overripe on the vine. This method allows the fruit to naturally achieve a higher sugar content and aromatic concentration, without the need for extreme drying.
The wine rests for four months in old American oak barrels, previously seasoned with oxidative aging wines. This process provides structure and subtle notes of nuts, spices, and fine oak, while always respecting the importance of the grapes.
The result is a dry, intense, and elegant white wine with a silky texture and a slight astringent note that adds zest. A perfect choice for those who want to discover everything Pedro Ximénez has to offer beyond its sweetness.
Visual: Bright golden color with copper highlights, clean and attractive.
Nose: Intense aromas of ripe fruit (apricot, quince), dried flowers, notes of honey, citrus peel and a spicy background.
Palate: Dry, smooth, with good structure and a touch of astringency that balances its natural sweetness. Long-lasting, with an elegant, slightly saline finish.
