Priorat DOCa Mas Doix Salanques 2005

The wine

Cuvée Salanques is a blend of old Grenache and Carignan and young Syrah vines. The grapes are sorted manually on the vine and in the cellar and aged for 14 months in new barrels before bottling without fining or filtration. A balanced and intense wine which epitomises the authentic character of Le Priorat.

About the Producer Mas Doix

Le Mas Doix was established in 1998 by the Doix and Llagostera families, whose names have been linked to winegrowing since 1850. However, before the bodega was created, grapes were sent to the cooperative. The vines are located on terraces 350 to 400 metres above sea level and vary in age between 70 and 100 years. The vineyard only spans 12 hectares, divided between five different cuvées, which each display the specific flavour of this Priorat terroir.
