The single-vineyard red 2019 Finca Dofí comes from the 14 hectares of vines planted across three parajes (lieu-dits) in Gratallops. It's classy, elegant, and fresh with very clean aromas and flavours, not lacking concentration or power. There is superb definition and purity here; it must be the finest and most elegant Dofí to date. It has finer tannins and more elegance than La Baixada this year. The 2018 was fragrant and this has more clout but superb balance. Spherical and velvety.
The single-vineyard 2017 Finca Dofí comes from ten hectares that were planted 20 years ago in the village of Gratallops. There is no trace of oak in the wines, and there are no edges; they all feel sleek and elegant. This Dofí expresses the Mediterranean vintage from this vineyard at 300 to 320 meters in altitude, where the slate has a lot of iron, which turns the soils red and makes round and velvety wines, with flavours of red cherries, cherry pit, nectarines and even blood orange. The warm soils are compensated by mostly northern exposures. The palate has volume and is juicy, sensual, and velvety, with some fine-grained tannins that currently call for food. It makes for a very gastronomical red.

It makes for a very gastronomical red.
It feels terribly lively, with a silkiness and purity, terse but at the same time ripe. The oak is very integrated and there is no volatility many associate with Priorat, but the flavours are clearly reminiscent of the old vintages of Dofí but with a much more polished texture. Again, the acidity gives it clout and depth, like claws clinging to you. It ends tasty and very mineral. This feels as good as the other-worldly 2013. A great vintage for Dofí. Elegance in a bottle.
The 2011 Finca Dofi represents a huge jump in quality for this wine. Dofi has mostly fruit from north-facing plots which give it a special freshness, pure red fruit and blood orange, peach, subtle herbs and aniseed with an impressive elegance and balance, round, and velvety tannins, very long and persistent in the finish. The 2011 has a rounder, softer and silkier texture. This is a superb Dofi, much more elegant and subtle than any vintage to date

Cataluña, eller Catalonien, er en levende og mangfoldig vinregion i det nordøstlige Spanien, der er kendt for sin brede vifte af vinstilarter og mikroklimaer. Regionen omfatter flere Denominaciones de Origen (DO'er), herunder den berømte DO Penedès, der er kendt for sine innovative hvid- og rødvine, og DO Priorat, der er meget anerkendt for sine kraftige og intense rødvine. Catalonien er også centrum for Cava, den spanske mousserende vin, som primært produceres i Penedès-området.

Cataloniens geografi er varieret med kystområder, store dale og barske bjerge, som bidrager til de forskellige terroirs, der findes inden for landets grænser. Middelhavsklimaet byder generelt på varme, tørre somre og milde vintre, der er ideelle til vindyrkning, med variationer i temperatur og nedbør, der påvirkes af højden og nærheden til havet.

Regionen producerer et væld af vinsorter med vægt på både indfødte og internationale druetyper. Traditionelle røde sorter omfatter Garnacha (Grenache) og Cariñena (Carignan), som er særligt fremtrædende i Priorat og Montsant, hvor gamle vinstokke bidrager med dybde og kompleksitet til vinene. For hvide vine er sorter som Xarel-lo, Macabeo og Parellada fremtrædende, især i produktionen af Cava.

Cataloniens vinproduktion er kendetegnet ved en blanding af tradition og innovation, hvor mange producenter eksperimenterer med nye teknikker og bæredygtig praksis, samtidig med at de respekterer deres arv. Denne dynamiske tilgang kombineret med regionens rige kulturhistorie gør catalanske vine helt unikke og meget efterspurgte på det globale vinmarked.

Priorat er en vinregion i Catalonien i Spanien. Regionen er kendt for at producere rødvine af høj kvalitet, som er fyldige og komplekse. Vinfremstillingens historie i Priorat går tilbage til det 12. århundrede, hvor munke fra kartusianerklosteret Scala Dei begyndte at dyrke druer i området. Regionens unikke terroir, som er kendetegnet ved stejle skråninger, skiferjord og et middelhavsklima, bidrager til Priorat-vinenes særpræg.

Produktionen af Priorat-vine er stærkt reguleret med strenge regler for druesorter, udbytte og vinfremstillingsteknikker. De primære druesorter, der bruges i Priorat-vine, er Garnacha og Cariñena, men andre sorter som Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah og Merlot er også tilladt. Vinene lagres typisk på egetræsfade i længere perioder, hvilket giver kompleksitet og dybde til det endelige produkt.

Priorat-vine er kendt for deres intense aromaer og smage, som ofte omfatter noter af sort frugt, lakrids og krydderier. Vinene er også kendetegnet ved deres høje tanninniveau, som giver dem en fast struktur og evnen til at lagre i mange år. Priorat-vine sammenlignes ofte med dem fra den nærliggende region Rioja, selv om de generelt anses for at være mere fyldige og komplekse.

Nogle af de bedste producenter af Priorat-vine er Alvaro Palacios, Clos Mogador og Mas Martinet. Disse producenter er kendt for deres engagement i kvalitet og deres brug af traditionelle vinfremstillingsteknikker. Deres vine er meget efterspurgte af samlere og vinentusiaster over hele verden.

Ud over rødvine er Priorat også kendt for at producere en lille mængde hvidvin. Hvidvinene fremstilles af Garnacha Blanca- og Macabeo-druer og er typisk lette og forfriskende med citrus- og blomsternoter.

Priorat er en region, der er gennemsyret af historie og tradition. Dets unikke terroir og strenge regler for vinfremstilling har været med til at frembringe nogle af verdens mest eftertragtede vine. Uanset om du er en erfaren vinsamler eller en afslappet entusiast, vil en flaske Priorat-vin helt sikkert imponere.
