Mas Doix Salanques 2006

Written by Ray Johnson

Celler Mas Doix, Priorat, Salanques 2006 The nose greets you with a fair waft of oak, sweet with jammy fruit and brown spices. In the mouth this wine is dense yet supple, with ripe tannins and lots of jammy black fruit – quite yummy.

The Salanques estate sits at 350 metres above sea level. The grapes behind this wine are sourced mostly from Garnacha and Carinena vines, 70 – 90 years old, with a bit of Merlot and Cabernet that was newly planted.

The wine was aged in French oak barrels for 12 months. Estate bottled in Poboleda 15% purchased for $33.99 at Bottle Barn
