Terroir Al Limit Les Manyes Carignan 2020: Priorat’s Mineral Essence

Experience the soul of Catalonia with this profound Carignan from Torroja del Priorat’s steep slate slopes. Crafted by visionary winemaker Dominik Huber, Les Manyes 2020 captures the wild spirit of Spain’s rugged terrain while delivering astonishing finesse.

A Symphony of Terroir
Uncork vibrant aromas of crushed raspberries, wild blueberries, and Mediterranean herbs – rosemary and sage weaving through hints of violet and wet slate. On the palate, electric acidity energizes layers of juicy red currant and black cherry, framed by velvety tannins and crystalline purity. The finish resonates with stony minerality, a signature of Priorat’s ancient llicorella soils.

Precision Meets Passion
Unlike heavier Priorat reds, this Carignan balances intensity with elegance (13.5% ABV). Cool fermentation preserves freshness, while extended lees contact adds texture without oak interference. Vegan-friendly and hand-harvested, it reflects Huber’s philosophy: minimal intervention for maximum expression.
