This is what good wine from the Pedro Ximénez grape tastes like

The Pedro Ximénez (PX) is a southern Spanish grape primarily used to make Sherry slightly sweeter. Therefore, the bodegas let it dry in the hot sun for a while after harvesting, so that the remaining liquid becomes sweeter. According to an unlikely legend, it originated in the Netherlands.

According to an improbable legend, it originates from the Netherlands. A Spanish soldier is said to have brought Pedro Ximénez from the Netherlands in the 17th century. A nice story, but it is highly doubtful whether it is a true story.

Sherry is also made from pure PX. Often as a seductive dessert wine. With a velvety, thick mouthfeel and a taste of raisins. There are very old examples, which are particularly complex and rich in flavor.
