Lustau Centenary Selection Pedro Ximenez "Murillo"

A special selection made by our former Cellar Master, Juan Fuentes, from the best casks of a very old Solera of Pedro Ximénez, bottled in 1996 to commemorate the centenary of Bodegas Lustau. Production is limited to one bottling per year. Deep dark brown color, opaque and viscous. Marmalade and prune aromas, bursting with flavors of ripe fruit, liquorice, and molasses. Rich and velvety on the palate, well balanced, with a long finish showing the wine’s great age.

Serve at 10 – 12ºC /50 – 54 ºF/. Serve with rich desserts, cakes and pastries, or pour a little over the best quality vanilla ice-cream. This wine can also accompany a cheese course.
