Finca Dofi 1996 - Alvaro Palacios

Tasting notes

"Still in cask the 1996 Clos Dofi appears to be a less massive more elegant finesse-styled wine than the 1995 and 1994 with a dense ruby/plum color and sweet red and black currant aromas intermixed with smoke spice fruitcake and earth. In the mouth it is medium-bodied well-delineated and long in the finish without the weight or opulence of the 1995 and 1994."
