Barrell Craft Spirits announces their newest release Barrell Bourbon Cask Finish: P.X. Sherry, is now making its way across the country. Pedro Ximénez, often abbreviated as P.X., is a dessert wine from Spain, renowned for its rich, intense sweetness. P.X. wines typically feature notes of dried fruits, velvety chocolate, and toffee.
