Product Description
Terroir al Limit Priorat Historic Red 2021 captures the authentic spirit of traditional Priorat wine from this acclaimed biodynamic producer founded by Dominik Huber and Eben Sadie. This nostalgic bottling blends 75% Garnacha (Grenache) with 25% Cariñena from diverse vineyards across nine villages including Gratallops, Torroja, Porrera, and Escaladei, showcasing the region's remarkable terroir diversity. The wine honors historic Priorat winemaking: whole-cluster fermentation without manipulation, aging in concrete tanks, and bottling just six months after harvest for immediate enjoyment. At 13.5% alcohol, the 2021 vintage delivers moderate ripeness from a slightly cooler year.
Tasting Experience
This "vin de soif" (thirst wine) displays intense, rich, and powerful characteristics typical of Priorat's unique volcanic slate soils and hot summers. The palate offers concentrated red and dark fruit flavors with earthy mineral undertones, balanced by refreshing acidity and medium tannins. Designed for gastronomy rather than contemplation, this elegant expression pairs beautifully with rustic Mediterranean cuisine, grilled meats, or hearty stews.
