Alvear 3 Miradas Paraje de Riofrío Alto 2019

A unique dry white wine from D.O. Montilla-Moriles, crafted by the historic Alvear winery. It offers complex aromas of baked apple, fennel, and dried fruits, with a smooth palate and a mineral finish shaped by biological ageing.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Pedro Ximénez
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Montilla-Moriles
  • Winery: Alvear
  • Soil / Altitude: Sierra de Montilla soils
  • Ageing / Cellaring potential: 8 months in concrete vats and 10-12 months in casks under flor yeast

The vineyard

The Pedro Ximénez grapes come from old bush vines in the Paraje de Riofrío Alto, located in the Sierra de Montilla. This exceptional vineyard is known for its chalky soils, which lend freshness and a distinct mineral character to the wine.

Ideal combination

Winemaking

After a manual harvest, the must ferments in concrete vats (tinajas). The wine then undergoes biological ageing under a veil of flor yeast for eight months in these vats, followed by ten to twelve months in old oak casks.

Why buy it

This dry white wine offers a different perspective on the Pedro Ximénez grape, far from the traditional sweet styles. Its extended biological ageing provides an aromatic complexity that will enrich any private collection.

Good wine with no sharp edges. Acidity is higher and fruit is subdued.

Almost sherry. No wonder since it’s the same grape. Very earthy with notes of mushroom, cedar, hazelnut. Melted butter, yeast, and citrus are other notes.

Walnuts. The notes of a fortified wine but as fresh as a white one.

I liked this wine. Perfect with Comté. This wine is nutty and woody. It tastes like dry sherry or even more like an oxidized Jura wine or Vin Jaune. This wine will not be liked by many but for those looking for an oxidized style wine this is a nice choice.

100% Pedro Ximenez from Montilla Moriles. 8 months in vats under a veil of flor then aged in used fino barrels. Oxidative. Notes of apple, bitter almond, bread dough, and salt. Light body. Not to my preferences

Appearance: Clear rich yellow. Nose: Pronounced aroma intensity. Dominated by oxidative attributes. Walnut, dried mushrooms, bruised apples, soy sauce, dried leaves and tobacco. Palate: Dry. Low acidity. Saline probably due to succinic acid. Licorice. Grape variety: PX.

Alvear “unfortified quasi sherry terroir” project 3/5. PX under Flor! Ladera was the west-facing vineyards; these are the east-facing ones and there’s more aging (3 years) - amphora (where fermentation happens) before transfer to old Fino cask. This is at the point of the range where we start getting that real Fino sherry nose and taste. Caramel, nougat and salt. If I hadn’t heard the story up front I would have been surprised to learn this wasn’t fortified !

Pedro Ximenez grapes from a single vintage, aged for a few months in tinajas (clay jars) followed by American barrels for a couple more years, spending the entire time under Flor. No fortification though! If you think this would taste similar to a Fino sherry, you'd be wrong - this is a totally unique and unexpected experience. Nose: chamomile, toast, roasted almond, Szechuan peppercorn, menthol, spearmint, pineapple, and yellow pear. Palate: nicely rounded with medium+ body and medium acid. Complex finish.
