Catena Alta Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Catena Alta' s Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from select rows in two of the Catena family's Andean vineyards. The blend from the two historic rows, like the marriage of sounds that create a symphony, yields a robust wine that speaks for earth and the vines that have been tended by the Catenas for four generations - these guys have been going since 1902, they are sure to know a thing or ten about good quality wines. Packed full of fantastic blackcurrant flavours, with notes of mind and dark chocolate. Ripe tannins and a full bodied red smooth texture. Before the world recognized Catena’s Argentina as “malbec country”, the winery was known for its old-world style Cabernet Sauvignon born in the clay-soils of Agrelo. The family cherishes its historic Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards in Agrelo and Tupungato, particularly for their age ability and classic flavours. Made from 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Cabernet Franc.
Terroir Al Limit, Torroja Vi de Vila 2017
The 2017 Torroja Vi de Vila from Terroir al Límit is a beautifully expressive Priorat red. A blend of Garnacha and Cariñena, it shows lifted aromas of red berries, herbs, and crushed stone, with subtle floral and spice notes. On the palate, it’s vibrant and refined, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and a mineral-driven finish that gives freshness and depth. Terroir al Límit was founded in 2001 by Dominik Huber and the late Eben Sadie, and has since evolved into one of Priorat’s benchmark estates. Based in the village of Torroja del Priorat, the winery works with old-vine Garnacha and Cariñena, often from steep, schist-rich vineyards that define the region’s dramatic landscape. Huber’s vision has always been to move away from the heavy, oak-laden style that once dominated Priorat, instead pursuing balance, transparency, and elegance.
