Fino-like, textured white: jasmine, beeswax, lemon peel, white currant and mirabelle. Mineral, saline backbone with mouth‑coating texture, racy acidity and a long, slightly phenolic finish.

Grilled tuna, roasted monkfish, seafood paella, aged Manchego, herb‑roasted chicken; Asian: miso‑glazed cod, sashimi/sushi, tempura prawns, lightly spiced Thai fish curries.

Production Method
Hand‑harvested; whole‑bunch fermentation ~5 days in stainless steel and cement, followed by 6 months ageing in concrete; light skin contact, controlled oxidation/maceration.

Vineyard Info
Terroir al Límit (founded by Dominik Huber with Eben Sadie) focuses on biodynamic/low‑intervention viticulture in steep slate/clay sites, using whole‑cluster ferments and neutral vessels to express Priorat terroir.
