This is a velvet hammer of sweetness, sun-dried and spellbinding. This is dessert as wine.
Pure Decadence
San Emilio is Lustau’s iconic Pedro Ximénez (PX), a bottle of pure Andalusian decadence built from grapes sun-dried on straw mats. It pours like motor oil laced with molasses. The nose hits like opening an antique wooden chest filled with dates, figs, and espresso beans. On the palate, it’s full-tilt hedonism: liquid raisins, fig jam, and toffee wrapped in velvet.
Crafted entirely from sun-dried Pedro Ximénez grapes and aged for over a decade, this is the essence of patience and heat. Yet a quiet backbone of acidity keeps it from being cloying.
How to Enjoy
This is the ultimate dessert topping. Pour it over vanilla ice cream, blue cheese, or brownies and you’ll swear you invented decadence.
