DIATOMISTS PEDRO XIMENEZ 5 YEAR OLD SHERRY
**Singular Botas** refers to unique or individual barrels (*botas*) used in the ageing process of wines, particularly in the production of Sherry and other fortified wines. Each *bota* can impart its own distinctive characteristics to the wine, depending on factors such as the wood, previous contents, and ageing conditions. Wines aged in *singular botas* often represent a more specialised or limited expression, capturing the unique qualities of the specific barrel in which they were matured. This concept is highly valued in traditional winemaking, as it showcases the individuality and complexity of the wine.
Medium maroon with an amber edge, this wine presents a nose brimming with aromas of figs, dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and cigar box. On the palate, it is exceptionally smooth and balanced, offering sweetness without being cloying. This elegant PX, aged for 5 years in *bota* and made from 100% Pedro XimΓ©nez, is intensely concentrated and nuanced, displaying invigorating acidity. The finish is endless, with delicate hints of nutmeg and cloves. Best served slightly chilled, it pairs beautifully with pudding or can be passed around the table after a meal for a sophisticated touch.
