A top choice for enjoying as a dessert Sherry, Gonzalez Byass' Nectar Pedro Ximénez is jam-packed with sweetness (think thick caramel, dried raisin and coffee), joined by a prickle of oak-y spice. Gorgeous stuff.

Totally what I was looking for. A thick, sticky, sweet sherry that is just divine. Love, love, love!
Simply the best I’ve tasted
Delightful dessert sherry with huge fig overtones - try pouring on ice cream, mince pies or Christmas pudding - just glorious
Love this as a combination with dessert and had this with a restaurant meal as part of a taster menu; I wouldn't suggest this as a standalone and I think that reviews on this basis (IMHO) are incomplete in their assessment. Think of a robust beef or game meal accompanied with a suitable accompaniment, then maybe cheese and biscuits with a different wine, and finally that dessert course. Ximenez fulfils that final dessert course. And well.
I followed the Master of Malt idea for an Old Fashioned cocktail using this sherry instead of brown sugar with a dash of orange bitters (used Buffalo Trace bourbon). OMG what a fabulous concoction! Smells like Christmas pudding in a glass and rates sublime. If you like bourbon you must buy this sherry and try it.
