2014 Pedro Ximenez de Anada

I loved the 2014 Pedro Ximénez de Añada, a sweet, thick, unctuous effort that almost demands a fork. Deep amber/brown in color with a huge nose of brown sugar, orange rind, fig, and dried flowers, this puppy doesn’t pull any punches on the palate and offers a mouthcoating texture, yet still stays balanced and enjoyable. This sweet wine was made all from the Pedro Ximénez that was dried on straw mats left out in the sun.
