Dofí 2023 - Álvaro Palacios

Álvaro Palacios Finca Dofí 2023 is one of the flagship single-vineyard wines of Priorat D.O.Q., crafted by Álvaro Palacios from historic vineyards located in Gratallops, on the region's iconic licorella slate soils. The wine comes from three adjoining plots—Camp d'en Piqué, La Baixada and Coll de Falset—farmed according to biodynamic principles. The 2023 vintage is composed of 95% Garnacha (Grenache) and 5% Carignan (Cariñena/Samsó). Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in wooden vats, followed by approximately 36 days of maceration and 15 months of ageing in large French oak foudres and barrels. The result is a wine of remarkable elegance, precision and mineral purity, regarded as one of the benchmark wines of modern Priorat.
