Finca Dofí 2021 is a stunning red wine from Bodegas Álvaro Palacios, crafted from carefully selected grapes sourced from a small estate of less than 10 hectares, nestled in the picturesque town of Gratallops in Tarragona. The vineyard is composed of three distinct plots: La Baixada, Coll Falset, and Camp dén Piqué, all situated at an altitude of 300 meters. The vines, with an average age of 30 years, thrive in the region's poor slate soils, which impart a unique spiciness to the wines.

The grape harvest is conducted manually, ensuring that each grape reaches optimal ripeness before being picked. In the winery, the grapes are destemmed and gently crushed, with the resulting must fermented in wooden vats for approximately 40 days, during which regular pumping over takes place. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation and is aged in French oak barrels for 19 months, allowing it to develop complexity and depth.

Visually, Finca Dofí showcases an intense dark cherry red color that is very dense, clean, and bright, with abundant, viscous tears. On the nose, it reveals a powerful and expressive aromatic profile characterized by vibrant fruit notes intertwined with mineral hints from the slate soil, floral aromas, toasted nuances, chocolate, and spicy touches, alongside subtle hints of black olive. The elegant aromatics invite exploration.

On the palate, the wine presents a broad and powerful entry, with a silky and refined mouthfeel. The fruit expresses itself in a luscious and delicate manner, complemented by creamy notes. It boasts a remarkable balance, thanks to its lively acidity that imparts freshness, leading to a long and persistent finish.

Finca Dofí 2021 pairs exceptionally well with a variety of hearty dishes, such as stews, roast lamb, civet, game meats, aged cheeses, and wild boar. This wine offers not just a taste, but an experience that reflects the essence of its unique terroir. Enjoy the rich flavors and memorable finish that make Finca Dofí a standout choice for any wine lover.
