Tasting notes
A pure Garnacha, the barrel sample of 2024 Finca Dofi shows profound earthiness, with complementary undertones of graphite, gravel, and pencil lead. Expansive on the palate, it widens on the midpalate to a point of roundedness and full-bodied weight, never losing a sense of the profound. But what you’ll remember most is that it tastes of spring, bursting in orange blossom, almond, tangerine, and beeswax. Flavors of blood orange make it all the more memorable and fresh, full of tension and yet velvety, too. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. One of the founding fathers of modern-day Priorat, Palacios focuses on vineyards and ancient methods to make what he describes as sensorial to emotional wines.

The single-vineyard 2024 Finca Dofí was produced exclusively with Garnacha this year, with a native fermentation with 43 days of maceration. It is currently in oval foudres and large barrels, where they expect it to age for around 14 months. The wine comes in at 14.35% alcohol, with a pH of 3.53 and 4.92 grams of acidity. It follows the path of elegance and refinement from the last few years with a nose of violet pastille, with a little more weight, color and volume, a very complete year with very fine-grained tannins. It's harmonious and balanced, with a chalky sensation in the finish. They expect around 33,000 bottles that should not be bottled until 2026.
