Álvaro Palacios Finca Dofí 2021

The Álvaro Palacios Finca Dofí is a single-vineyard red wine made predominately from the Garnacha grape, with a small amount of Cariñena and white grapes too. The original "Clos Dofí" now called "Finca Dofí" was one of the first great "clos" that catapulted the wine region of Priorat to fame. The vineyard is u-shaped with exposures to both the south and north. Adopting a biodynamic and organic approach, everything is done by hand and during harvest many passes through the vines are undertaken in order to get the most optimal fruit. Renown for its round, voluptuous and velvety style Finca Dofí is a sensual juicy red wine with flavours of red cherry and nectarine balanced by fine grained tannins. A wine to grace any dining table.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.

Spanish rarity

I came across this wine while browsing a pocket wine guide,and was intrìgued. I try to sample the best there is of each grape variety,and while this maker's top wine, L'Ermita,was out of my reach,I thought I'd try his second label. It is obviously a very fine wine,but perhaps needs more than 3 years to age properly. It was not as memorable as Sassicaia or Noemia,but to be fair it cost a third less than those wines. If I win big time on the Premium bonds I'll try L'Ermita !
