Part of the wine matured in oak foudre, making it a little more classical. It has 14% alcohol but feels very balanced, and the alcohol doesn't show. 4,006 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2020.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mnmd-review__summary\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sc-hKysef kYcfoa\"\u003eThere's only one wine from 2020 at Terroir Al Limit, as the problems with COVID-19 were complicated by a massive attack of mildew. In 2021, they abandoned oak completely, and all the wines are fermented and aged in concrete except the Históric range, which is in stainless steel. The wines feel very young, primary and undeveloped; they probably need a lot more time in bottle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eDits del Terra gets its name from the gnarled, nearly 85-year-old vines of Carinyena that look like ancient fingers clawing into the schist soils of this site near the village of Torroja. This is one of the first vineyards that Dominik and his then partner, Eben Sadie, acquired when they started making wine together in the Priorat. Being south-facing, it is also fascinating to taste it alongside L’Arbossar, its nearby, north-facing twin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAppellation: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePriorat\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVariety: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCarinyena (Carignan)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge of Vines: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e60\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFarming: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCertified organic\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSoil: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSchist\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAltitude: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e400 meters\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFermentation: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand harvested, whole cluster, natural yeast fermentation in vat, no pigeage or pumping over, 2 week maceration before pressing\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAging: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e20 months in concrete tanks and Stockinger foudres, vegan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Priorat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41766066684038,"sku":"FR-terrLIMIT-dits","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/TerroiralLimitDitsdelTerra.png?v=1746537909","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/terroir-al-limit-dits-del-terra","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
