| Description: | Wine Advocate 99 Points - "My favorite of all the old sweet PXs I tasted this time was the perfumed and showy 1964 Don Px Convento Seleccin, which still has the wooden label, but it has also been modernized and made easier to read. It is denser than any of the other wines and has a brighter edge, amber, because the center is opaque and black. It has an incredible perfume; it's floral and spicy with fresher aromas than I remember in the other sweet PXs. It fills your mouth, goes down your throat like liquid gold and explodes in the eternal finish. It's an amazing Px with 15.5% alcohol, lower that most, and with 377 grams of sugar, also lower than most. Elegant and intense, simply delicious. There are 4,630 bottles of this wine, all bottled in February 2022.". James Suckling - 98 Points You dont need much of this to experience the greatness of this Px. Just a small sip will wake you up. The huge depth of flavors really makes it smell and taste less sweet. Instead, it is silky and unbelievably drinkable. Bonfire ash, dark chocolate, figs, black dates, tar and a touch of mussels and dark earth. Dont be afraid of the huge concentration and the sweetness, as youll be stunned by how balanced, integrated and expressive the palate is. Salted caramel, black walnuts, dried blackberries and bitter chocolates smoothly dance on the tongue and glide through to a one-minute finish. Sheer black nectar. The alcohol is already very well integrated. A stunner. Drink or hold. |
