Terroir Al LimitLes Tosses Priorat Grenache / Carignan 2019
About this product
Nestled at a lofty 600 meters in the heart of Torroja del Priorat, Les Tosses stands as a pinnacle of winemaking endeavor within the Terroir al Límit domain. This grand cru vineyard, an inaugural masterpiece in the collection since 2003, embodies the essence of terroir-driven viticulture. Its austere terrain, draped in steep black slate, and kissed by the relentless southwestern sun, demands reverence akin to conquering the Matterhorn. The venerable 90-year-old Carignan vines, emblematic of resilience, yield grapes that undergo a meticulous journey from vine to cellar. Embracing techniques reminiscent of distant Burgundian cellars, the wine is crafted with reverence: hand-harvested, whole-cluster fermented, and aged in humble cement tanks for eight months. In the glass, Les Tosses unfurls its narrative—a symphony of opulent black fruits intertwined with whispers of smoke and spice. Yet, beneath its rugged facade lies a profound elegance, buoyed by a luminous acidity that propels each sip into a mesmerising dance of power and grace. Les Tosses is not merely a wine; it is a love affair—a testament to the allure of terroir and the boundless depths of infatuation.
