Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2005

(this is the second wine of Mas Doix) Bright ruby-red. Musky aromas of blackberry, cassis and spices. Fleshy and sweet but firm-edged, with slightly wild flavors of truffle, licorice and herbs. Quite firm, even a bit ungiving, on the back. .

Score 95/100 · Drink 2005-2017, Robert Parker, Jun 2005

There are 700 cases of the second wine, the 2003 Salanques, a blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Carignan, and 20% Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. It is hard to believe this dazzling effort is made from declassified juice. The stunningly perfumed bouquet of raspberries and blackberries is followed by an elegant, medium to full-bodied, complex, nuanced wine with tremendous purity as well as a multilayered mid-palate and finish. Sweet tannin, fine acidity, and undeniable minerality suggest it will provide enjoyment now and over the next 10-12 years. Situated in the Priorat village of Poboleda, this winery continues to immensely impress. Importer: Eric Solomon, European Cellars, Charlotte, NC; tel. (704) 358-1565
