About Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada

Do not be swayed by French jargon. Do you believe that French prestige and glamour are exclusive to the grand cru? How mistaken you are! In other parts of the world, such as Spain, they also possess the same qualities, albeit with far less enticing names. It may take your ear some time to get accustomed to terms like Gran Vinya Classificada, but your palate will undoubtedly adapt swiftly to Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada.
 
Since the 2019 vintage, Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada boasts the title of Gran Vinya Classificada. This designation, held by only two other vineyards in all of Catalonia, ensures the authenticity and uniqueness of the environment where the vines grow. In the case of Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada, what makes it so distinctive—as its name suggests—are its centenary vines, over 115 years old, planted in 1902 in the Tossal d’en Bou, a site in the village of Poboleda, in Tarragona. Here, the terrain is characterized by steep slopes, ranging between 350 and 450 meters in elevation, with an abundance of slate and llicorella soils. This particular base, with excellent drainage capacity, does not readily provide the water the vines desperately need, forcing them to extend their roots deep into the earth. The continental influence of this area partly mitigates this situation, helping to cool the hot, dry summers. In fact, the yields are not very high, averaging 300 grams per vine; however, in this case, the low quantity is synonymous with quality, achieving great concentration that translates into an unparalleled wine in the cellar.
 
Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada is harvested by hand, with each grape being carefully selected for production. This will not be the only scrutiny this red wine undergoes, as it will be inspected two more times before fermentation. Once before de-stemming and then again, grape by grape, on the sorting table. From here, Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada will be divided into two batches. One will ferment in stainless steel tanks and the other in open French oak barrels. After three weeks of maceration, Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada is pressed, and only the free-run juice is kept to continue the production process and undergo malolactic fermentation before being transferred to barrels. In this final stage, Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada will rest for 14 months before being bottled.
 
So, what are you waiting for? Discover Mas Doix 1902 Tossal d'en Bou Gran Vinya Classificada, a red wine that competes with the best in the world. Cheers!
