Priorat DOCa DOCA Finca Dofi Alvaro Palacios 2011
The wine
This blend of Grenache and Carinyena is an example of a perfectly balanced wine. The nose unveils several layers of complexity, opening with spice and then developing dark fruit aromas (blackberry, blackcurrant). The palate is rich and concentrated with a superb tannin grain. Keep this wine in the cellar for five to twenty years.
The Palacios Remondo family can boast a winemaking pedigree dating back to 1651. Today, Alvaro Palacios is at the helm of the family domaine and produces some of Spain’s finest wines. Voted Spain’s most sensational wine producer by Wine Spectator, Alvaro Palacios places particular emphasis on vine management and avoids the use of chemicals wherever possible. His wines have big personalities, just like the man himself.
