Lifted aromas of violets, red cherry and wild herbs give the 2023 Alvaro Palacios Finca Dofí a strikingly graceful profile for Priorat, leading to a midweight palate of juicy redcurrant and cherry layered with hints of spice and citrus zest. Fine, sandy tannins and vibrant acidity keep everything taut and precise, finishing long, floral and elegant.

Finca Dofí is Álvaro Palacios’s emblematic single-vineyard red from the steep, llicorella (slate) terraces of Gratallops in Priorat, a mainly Garnacha-based blend subtly seasoned with Cariñena and a touch of local white varieties. Farmed organically and fermented with indigenous yeasts, it marries Mediterranean intensity and mineral depth with an unexpectedly fine, floral elegance, giving a silken, long-lived wine that sits just a step below L’Ermita in the Palacios hierarchy.
