The fino Eléctrico is a classic wine that has been taking part in Andalusian people’s lives since 1922. Toro Albalá’s foundational winery is settled in the zone’s first power plant, which gave birth to jokes between the natives that said that the wine had electricity or that it was electric. The famous name of the fino “Eléctrico” originates from that story, as well as the original lightbulb bottle design.
Grape Varietals & Region: Eléctrico is a fino wine made of 100% Pedro Ximénez grapes, from Montila in Andalucia, Spain
Taste Profile: Straw-like yellow with greenish reflections. Almond and toasted touches as well as bakery aromas. Dry wine with pleasant acidity and salinity, and a light bitter ending.
Winemaking Process: Biological ageing under veil of flor, produced through the criaderas and solera system during a 5-year period. The alcohol content is obtained in a natural way. A very pleasant wine that invites you to keep drinking.
