Tasting Note
Perfumed and floral Grenache: blackberries, raspberry, violets, Mediterranean herbs and lavender over a pronounced llicorella minerality; silky tannins, bright acidity and a long, mineral finish.

Food Pairing
Western: roast duck with spiced cherries, grilled lamb, Parmigiana, aged Manchego, roasted root vegetables. Asian: Korean BBQ (bulgogi), Chinese braised short ribs, Sichuan-style spicy beef, miso-glazed black cod or aubergine.

Production Method
Hand-harvested Garnacha; short (~10-day) whole-cluster maceration; aged ~18–24 months in large neutral oak foudres and cement; minimal new oak, artisanal cellar practices.

Vineyard Info
Terroir al Límit (founded by Dominik Huber, early involvement from Eben Sadie) crafts small-production, single‑vineyard Priorat wines from steep llicorella slate plots emphasizing terroir and precision.
