Pedro Ximénez Bertola

PEDRO XIMENEZ BERTOLA 12 YEARS

This wine has its origins in the old Bodegas Bertola, established in 1919.

Grapes from the Pedro Ximenez variety are sun dried in a process called ‘pasificación’ (raisining).

After more than 12 years of aging in ‘Soleras y Criaderas’ system, the original density and color is increased, resulting in a dark profound mahogany.

The aroma is profound raisin and the taste is sweet, vigorous and well balanced.
