Pedro Ximenez is a dessert wine like no other. The style of sherry and the grape used to make the sherry are of the same name. This is a sweet, intensely concentrated dark sherry, perfect for sipping after dinner.

The sweet wine Pedro Ximenez is receiving quite a bit of attention lately. These almost black-colored ropy and intense sweet wines, better known as PX, are challenging sweet wines like Banyuls to an ideal pairing with chocolate desserts, blue cheeses and even with ice cream and raisins. Many people think PX is only a sherry wine from Jerez, but that’s not completely correct. What many people don’t know is that the bodegas in the sherry region use the young, sweet PX from Montilla Moriles as a base in their solera systems in Jerez. The wine law says that D.O. Jerez and D.O. Málaga can buy sweet wines from Montilla Moriles to make their own wines.
