Nice. I have not seen this in our market yet.

Any thoughts on the wine would be appreciated as I have no experience with Dofi
I bought 3 bottles a few months back.

Do not drink now. I drank one down in AZ earlier this year. It will be an excellent bottle of wine, but needs time. Following that bottle I picked some up here when it was released...at 10% off of course.

A great wine Uncle John, and one of the very best wines priced under $70 in the marketplace today imo.

Alvardo comes from the wine business. His family owns Palacios Remondo in Rioja. Alvado studied and worked at Petrus before starting his own winery in Priorat.

Your bottle of Grenache dominated wine ( Syrah & Merlot) will show very well at 8-15 years of age in my opinion.

I hope you enjoy the wine a great deal.

I found a magnum of '94 Palacios Dofi in the cellar recently, and need to find the right moment to open.

It should be drinking well.

Nice selection!

Thanks. I've been wanting to try the Araujo SB. I don't see it come up often, so I figured it was worth a shot. I hope it's not gone by this point.

Willing to share where from?

There was a small wine store in the suburbs that had a single bottle which they put on the shelf this week. I asked them where it came from and they said it had been sitting in the basement of the store.
