Drink it now or cellar for up to 20 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour and half. Based in Catalonia, Spain, Terroir al Limit is a project born in the early 2000s, from the collaboration between Dominik Huber, a German economics student, Eben Sadie, a famous South African winemaker, and Jaume Sabaté, a Spanish investor. The intent, from the beginning, was to enhance the enormous terroir potential of the Priorat wine region and the great Spanish viticultural heritage. The winery can take advantage of centuries-old vines located up to 800 meters above sea level on Licorella soils that retain heat, allowing the grapes to slowly ripen. Pedra de Guix is a blend of equal parts Grenache blanc, Macabeu, and Pedro Ximenez, which ages for 2 years on the lees in 500-liter barrels and a further year in foudre (without yeasts). The presence of the Pedro Ximenez grape in particular gives it a light oxidative character that vaguely recalls a sherry. The wine has a clear and limpid color with intense straw tones. On the nose, it reveals a complex aromatic profile with notes of yellow apple and dried fruit, white flowers and honey, aromatic herbs and fennel, followed by hints of yeast. On the palate, it is intense and velvety, complex and vigorous. It has a well-balanced acidic vein and a savory character with saline aromas. The finish is very long and recalls mineral notes. It is a must-try with shellfish and seafood.
