This Fino wine from Toro Albala is presented in a unique light-bulb decanter and makes a wonderful gift. The decanter can be re-used.

The light-bulb design relates to Toro Albala history when the winery took over the local power plant in 1922.

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.

Eléctrico is a fino wine made of 100% Pedro Ximénez grapes, though a 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.

The result is a superb, complex and powerful Fino with aromas of almond, green-fruit and iodine. ‘Fino Elctrico’ is made from 100% Pedro Ximinez grapes and offers a soft mid-palate and round finish that sets it apart from its Fino brethren in Jerez. However the bright, chalky crackle, so distinctive of the Fino style, shines through. A very pleasant wine that invites you to keep drinking.
