KEY INFORMATION
KEY INFORMATION	The Pedro Ximnez grape are collected from the vine slightly later and they are then sundried in a process called soleo. The Palomino must destined for Solera 1847 comes from the first press of the continuous presses so as to obtain slightly more structure and body. Following fermentation to between 11% and 12% alcohol the wine is fortified to 18% alcohol and then enters the Oloroso solera. An empty space of 100 liters is left in the casks so that the wine has a large surface area in contact with the oxygen and therefore undergoes complete oxidization. The Pedro Ximnez grapes undergo a strong press similarto olive oil production. The must then begins to ferment although stops at around 7% alcohol due to sugar stress. At this time the wine is fortified to 15% alcohol and then enters into the Pedro Ximnez solera. After ageing separately for more or less 4 years the two grape varieties are blended, 75% Palomino and 25% Pedro Ximnez. The blend then enters into the Solera 1847,
