This Don PX 1956 is a wine of high persistence and complexity, made from sun-dried Pedro Ximénez grapes to obtain their high sugar content. After pressing, it was left to rest for twelve months in stainless steel tanks and, after that time, it was stored inAmerican oak casks for almost 70 years in static conditions.
Time has transformed it into “Convento Selección”. Are wines that have aged for generations in amontillado casks, so that the wine and wood could merge with time and result into an unmatchable flavour. Our bottling system is called “Convento Selección”, in honour to theCistercian monk system in which the wine is classified int heir own series. The entire elaboration is handmade, following San Benito’s Recula Rule: “Living off the work of our hands.”. An exceptional wine of high complexity and elegance.
D.O.P. Montilla-Moriles.
