Description
Regional Trophy - Decanter World Wine Awards (2014)
As one of Spain's oldest sherry houses, Bodegas Hidalgo upholds the rarest traditions of the region in every bottle. Triana Pedro Ximenez VORS 30 Years is a remarkable release, bearing the coveted "Very Old Rare Sherry" (VORS) status to guarantee an average age of over three decades in solera. Crafted from sun-dried PX grapes, vinified and aged in American oak butts, the wine is transformed through long, oxidative maturation, developing profound depth and layering. Bottled at 15% abv, it unveils aromas of dried fig, raisin, dark chocolate, roasted coffee and Christmas cake. The palate is unctuous, intensely sweet yet structured, with extraordinary length, showing molasses, liquorice, and burnt orange. VORS certification is reserved for only the finest, longest-aged sherries. This rare bottling is the ultimate after-dinner wine, pairing magnificently with blue cheeses, dark chocolate, or savoured on its own for a singular, meditative experience.
