97 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "The oldest and most concentrated sweet wine from Alvear is the NV Pedro Ximénez Solera 1830, a wine that cannot change despite this new bottling from January 2017, as it's so old, concentrated and sweet (480 grams of sugar per liter) that we wouldn't feel its evolution over our lifetime. I've tasted and described this wine before and it's as good, old and powerful as I remember it. The notes I mentioned before, noble woods, espresso coffee, vanilla and coconut are still there and so is the complex, velvety and fine palate, with a luscious and never-ending finish. Unfortunately what is changing with this wine is availability and price. 318 half bottles were produced. The price provided is for a half bottle. (12/29/17)."

96 points Joaquín Hidalgo (Vinous): "In the world of wine, some are commonplace while others are truly unique. The NV Solera 1830 is firmly in the latter category. This 100% Pedro Ximénez has been aging since the 19th century, resulting in a concentration and richness that command full attention. With a syrupy texture, this rich and sweet wine delivers nuanced, clean aromas of herbs and spices, accompanied by creamy caramel notes. Complex and long-lasting, its umami-driven palate is best experienced firsthand. Drink 2024-2034. (Apr 2024)."
