Rating: Robert Parker 93/100, Wine Spectator Top 100 wines of the year
In the northeastern part of Priorat, Mas Doix enjoys a privileged geographical location, with its vineyards protected between two natural barriers, Montsant and Serra del Mollo. Temperatures here are lower than normal for the region, allowing perfect ripening of the grapes and later harvesting, resulting in intense, superbly balanced wines, such as this splendid Salanques 2006. A great Priorat!

Excellent with a 10-year ageing potential... Finesse and generosity.
