California raisins, molasses and maple syrup aroma. Mouth-coating with slick acidity and notes of black olive and savoury wood.

Decanter World Wine Awards, June 2018

      Tasting Notes and Description
      Bodegas Hidalgo La Gitana was founded in 1792 and since then the firm has passed from father to son, being today one of the few winemaking companies managed by the family and directed by the eighth generation in direct line of the founder.

      Dark mahogany in colour with iodine reflections. The nose is clean and intense, typical of the variety, with aromas of raisins and ripe black fruit. On the palate it is rich, sweet and opulent. Intense flavours of plums and raisins, with an extremely persistent finish.

      Natural sweet wine from the DO Jerez - Xérés-Sherry, oxidatively aged. The grape used to produce this wine is Pedro Ximénez. The grapes are dried on straw mats, and after a very careful elaboration, musts with great richness of sugar are obtained. The slow fermentation, at a controlled temperature, produces wines that preserve all the aromas and characteristics of the Pedro Ximénez grape varietal.

      Ideal for desserts such as pies and cakes, tiramisu, chocolate, brownies, crème brûlée and magnificent poured over vanilla ice cream with chopped nuts sprinkled on top. Beautiful with blue cheese too.

      "An incredible nose of vanilla, cinder toffee, Christmas cake, roasted walnuts, figs, dates, prunes and mocha. Incredibly thick and unctuous, but not overly sweet, the palate has a lasting pleasure, with its balancing acidity and flavours of melted, salted liquorice, black treacle and log fires. Amazing."
