ABV: 15%
Closure: Cork

Super dense black sienna brown in colour with a very deep sienna brown olive green tinged hue. The viscosity of this wine is such that it clings to the walls of the glass with an engine oil like consistency. Completely intoxicating the olfactory senses is a kaleidoscope of honeyed raisins, Christmas cake, walnuts, burnt toffee, fig and spice aromas that are totally mesmerising. Amazingly rich, concentrated and viscous, the texture of this palate staining elixir is so thick and heavy you could almost eat it with a spoon. Mouth coating flavours of honeyed raisins, molasses, figs, Christmas cake, melted toffee, subtle dried nuts and spice engulf the palate. Warm and mellow spirit background with a stunningly long finish that’s sweet, luscious and oil like in its consistency. The aftertaste lingering for minutes after it’s been swallowed. A magical, mind blowing PX.
Alc. 15%

Other Reviews....
The amazing, pedal to the metal/full throttle/balls to the wall, sweet 1910 Pedro Ximenez Solera is a dark amber-colored, full-bodied, unctuously-textured beauty that should be sipped and savored slowly and carefully at the end of a meal with a plate of cashews. It is remarkable stuff. The price is not high for what it represents.

Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate

The NV Piedro Ximénez Solera 1910 comes from a separate Solera blend going back to 1910. It's on another level compared to the 1926 and has another level of viscosity and opulence that needs to be tasted to be believed. Massive coffee, toffee, burnt caramel, and spice all emerge from this motor oil-like wine that has off-the-charts richness and depth, while staying reasonably light on the palate. As with the Solera 1927, it’s best enjoyed in small sips at the end of a meal.
