%X The Pedro Ximénez grape variety is one of the authorised varieties in the Jerez-Xérès-Sherry DO,
although it currently occupies only 1% of the region's total cultivated area. With the intention of promoting its
cultivation, as well as diversifying production in a historic wine-growing area such as the Marco de Jerez (Spain),
work is currently being carried out through a research project in which both public and private entities are
participating. This project focuses, among other aspects, on the organic cultivation of this minor grapevine
variety in the region, as well as on the production of naturally sweet wines. In this research, the results of the
characterisation of the grape musts of overripe Pedro Ximénez grapes are presented, as well as the monitoring
of its fermentation and the characterisation of the wines obtained. The resulting wines show how the overripening technique is presented as a viable alternative for the production of new types of wines in a warm climate
area such as the Marco de Jerez.
