Doix Costers de Vinyes Velles,Priorato,

Cellars Mas Doix was an estate created in 1998 by the Doix and LLagostera families. The estate comprises 12 ha of predominantly Garnacha and Carinena vines aged between 75-100 years old planted at between 350 and 400 metres above sea level on slopes of slate known locally as Licorella, which imparts a strong minerality to the wine. The fruit quality here is outstanding, berries are hand picked, the must is then fermented in temperature controlled vats with skin contact for 3-4 weeks before ageing in 75% new allier oak for 14 months. These are incredibly distinguished Prioratos, pure with a touch of modernity, deep complexity and slick tannic structures.
