This is a great packaging. There is an actual padlock safeguarding the contents of this wine. Candado in the Spanish means padlock. A. R. Valdespino is a heritage sherry producer—spanning back to 1264. Sherry is so mis-understood and under appreciated. The Pedro Ximenez is an evocative Sherry– there is no other wine that even approaches the quality and uniqueness of this wine. This is a dense, dark and viscous wine.
A dazzingly Pedro Ximenez wine with notes of truffle honey, clover, lavendar, dried Turkish fig, dates, pine nuts and vanilla.
