Les Manyes, Terroir al Limit - 2019

Item # 35538 750 mL

One of the top cuvées from a new producer in Priorat, Terroir al Limit. Winemaker Dominick Huber hand-harvests grapes from old Garnatxa vines grown in chalky soil. The wine aged for 2 years in a large old foudre. Impressive minerality and freshness, this wine is excellent young, yet definitely ageworthy.

The distinguished Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas appellations are both characterized by significant percentages of Grenache, while in Tavel and Lirac the grape is used to make...

Priorato

Priorat is the precocious new kid on the Spanish wine scene. Twenty years ago, this tiny Northwestern winemaking region was all but forgotten.
