A sea of figs in flour and raisins mixed with dates welcome you on the nose. On the palate it is certainly viscous, with echoes of very sweet raisins an almost nonexistent acidity, finishing with a bitter melted caramel aftertaste. Everything too obvious for my taste. Better if served quite chilled. Happy Kings Day!
Un mar de higos en harina y pasas mezcladas con dátiles te dan la bienvenida en nariz. En boca es ciertamente viscoso, con ecos de uvas pasas muy dulces una casi inexistente acidez con un retrogusto amargo de caramelo derretido. Todo demasiado obvio para mi gusto. Mejor si se sirve muy fresquito. ¡Feliz Día de Reyes!

Once again more viscous than last time. Obvious aromas of raisins, orange peel and olive tree bark. Excellently balanced with a sharp acidity. Time only makes it better in terms of texture and length. A PX without elegance but sincerity.
Y de nuevo más viscoso que la última vez. Aromas obvios a uvas pasas, a corteza de naranja rayada y a corteza de olivo. Excelentemente equilibrada con una acidez punzante. El tiempo solo le hace mejorar en cuanto a textura y longitud. Un PX sin elegancia pero con sinceridad.

Rich, viscous dessert wine, just too much raisin flavor for me.

Thick, unctuous but not at all cloying. Raisins, dark fruit. Smooth on the tongue, good length.

Nur süß, eindimensional und langweilig. Zum kochen geeignet.
