Mas Doix Doix 2022 is a powerful yet finely tuned Priorat red that captures the essence of one of Spain’s most revered wine regions.

The nose is intensely expressive, with ripe blackberries, black cherries, dried herbs, liquorice, and subtle spicy oak notes adding complexity. On the palate, the wine is rich and layered, combining generous dark fruit with firm, mature tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, mineral-driven finish. This is a wine with impressive ageing potential, and time in bottle will only enhance its complexity and harmony.
