Finca Dofi 2007 Alvaro Palacios

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (93)

The 2007 Finca Dofi ups the ante. It is sourced from a single vineyard with a cepage of 60% Garnacha and 40% Cabernet, Syrah, and Merlot aged in 100% new oak. It displays a more expressive nose of mineral, Asian spices, smoke, espresso, black cherry, and licorice. On the palate it is dense but approachable. It merits several years of cellaring, and its optimal drinking window extends from 2013 to 2022.

Floral, cherry and forest floor notes mingle in this supple red. Fresh and balanced, with light, firm tannins and an alluring savory finish. Graceful, but has real drive.
