The medium- to full-bodied palate is honeyed, with dried peaches. Ample, glossy and sweet, this shows a pleasant richness but leans slightly toward the cloying side. Balanced overall, but best enjoyed for its open, generous character. Drink or hold.

The youngest and most approachable of the sweet wines is the 2024 Selección Especial #1, fermented in stainless steel, where it was kept with lees for five to six months. It's pale, grapey and more aromatic, with 11% alcohol, a pH of 3.25, seven grams of acidity and 140 grams of sugar. It's primary and young, a little shy but not reductive, with varietal notes, pale, clean and balanced. 8,000 half bottles were filled in January 2025.

The 2024 J.O. N1 Selección Especial from Málaga opens with notes of flowers, orange blossom, lime and a touch of tuberose. Expressive and sweet, it shows vibrant acidity and delicate flavor. The fresh finish provides contrast to the wine’s sweetness, delivering a white of fine balance and grace.
