Description

The label says it is produced by Pilar Aranda, an almacenista bodega which supplied wines for González Byass, Lustau and others. I believe this wine was bottled around 2003-2004, when the bodega was already sold to Álvaro Domecq, but he was still using the old name because of a copyright dispute with the owners of the Pedro Domecq brand. At the time of bottling, the wine was said to be around 25 years old, which makes sense, as nowadays the brand 1730 is still in use, but most of the wines (except the P.X. 1730) have been classified as V.O.R.S. wines (30+ years). They are only bottled sporadically so you may have to look around a bit to find a bottle.
