Talijancich
Pedro Ximénez Liqueur
An amazing freak of a wine that sells for $250 for 350ml and is a steal if you can grab a bottle. James Talijancich said the grape bunches were so dry “they would fall off if you brushed against them “ but in the end they picked them anyway. Picked at an astonishing 35 degrees Baume. On the palate it is concentration and power plus essence of raisin with the consistency and weight of light machine oil. The final Wine was 27 degrees Baume. Apart from raisins there was toffee and maple syrup on nose and palate with a finish that went on for minutes. A truly amazing experience especially for a fortified white wine. World Class.
