Terroir al Limit Pedra de Guix 2021

The Terroir al Limit Pedra de Guix 2021 is a stunning example of refined winemaking from Priorat, offering a delicate and velvety character that delights the palate. This wine is a blend of Pedro Ximenez, Macabeo, and Grenache Blanc from old vines on steep slopes, which contribute to its concentrated fruit and complex flavors. The winemaking process involves hand harvesting, gentle basket pressing, and fermentation in cement tanks, followed by eight months of aging in the same vessels. Notably, Pedro Ximenez undergoes controlled oxidation before blending, adding a unique dimension to the wine.

The Pedra de Guix 2021 stands out for its evolution in the glass, where its opulence and freshness develop over time. It presents waves of citrus, nuts, and floral notes, with a subtle nutty edge that enhances its complexity. The wine is both concentrated and saline, with fine tannins and bright acidity that extend into a long, savory finish. Praised by critics, including 96 points from Wine Advocate, 95 points from James Suckling, and 94 points from Guia Penin, this wine exemplifies elegance and balance, making it an exceptional choice for both immediate enjoyment and aging.
