Luis Gutierrez for The Wine Advocate commented: "The extreme 1929 Don PX Convento Selección has unusual thickness and density, it's a rare, sweet beast. It's very dark with a dark green colour, dense, fat. The palate is deep and full-bodied, with a profile more reminiscent of a PX de Xeres. With its 500 grams of residual sugar per litre, it is monumental, baroque and demands to be drunk in small sips. It's an impressive wine, very sweet and truly unique. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate: 95/100

Technique

Oenology

The grapes are harvested at the end of August. The best bunches are selected and transported in crates to a sandy area where they are laid out in the sun to dry for 10 days (45-50°C during the day and 25-35°C at night). The bunches are then crushed with very powerful presses, and the must is put into vats. The alcoholic fermentation takes place until about 9° of alcohol. The wine is then matured to about 17° and then aged for a long time in large American oak barrels.

Suggestions for accompaniment

To be drunk on its own, as a dessert wine or with a large Havana.
