The wine's story:<\/span><\/h3>

Terra de Cuques Negre is Terroir al L\u00edmit's village-level red from Torroja, offering an introduction to Dominik Huber's winemaking philosophy. Unlike many entry-level Priorat wines, it is neither oaky nor heavy, but reflects the Torroja terroir in a juicy, more approachable form.<\/span><\/p>

2022 was a warm vintage, but early picking and precise viticulture kept the alcohol moderate (~14.5%) and the fruit fresh. The wine was fermented with whole bunches and a short maceration to preserve purity and balance. This is Priorat\u2019s take on a Burgundian village wine \u2013 enjoyable young, yet complex enough to be taken seriously.<\/span><\/p>

Winemaking:<\/span><\/h3>
  • 50% Garnacha, 50% Cari\u00f1ena<\/span><\/li>
  • 25\u201340-year-old vines at ~400m altitude<\/span><\/li>
  • Organic viticulture<\/span><\/li>
  • Fermented with native yeasts, whole bunches (semi-carbonic)<\/span><\/li>
  • Short maceration: some of the grapes for 7 days, some for 10 days<\/span><\/li>
  • 8 months in concrete tanks and large used foudres (no new oak)<\/span><\/li>
  • Alcohol ~14\u201314.5%<\/span><\/li>
  • ~10,000 bottles produced<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Tasting notes:<\/span><\/h3>

    Colour: medium-deep ruby red.<\/span><\/p>

    Aroma: Ripe red and black berries \u2013 wild raspberry, blackberry, blackcurrant. Spices and herbs \u2013 black pepper, clove, fresh thyme. A delicate floral line (peony, liquorice) and chalky minerality point to the soil of Torroja.<\/span><\/p>

    Palate: Medium-bodied, warm and juicy. First black cherry, dark forest berries and plum jam, then lively acidity and a herbal undertone (rosemary, bay leaf). Cari\u00f1ena brings a fine tannic structure and a chalky finish, keeping the wine fresh and balanced. Silky texture and a long mineral finish.<\/span><\/p>

    Food pairing:<\/span><\/h3>
    • Tapas: grilled sausage, alb\u00f3ndigas (Spanish meatballs), patatas bravas<\/span><\/li>
    • Mediterranean cuisine: aubergine parmigiana, pizza with fennel sausage, chicken roasted with garlic and herbs<\/span><\/li>
    • A Catalan classic: butifarra sausage with white beans<\/span><\/li>
    • Grilled and smoked dishes: pulled-meat burger, grilled vegetables with romesco sauce<\/span><\/li>
    • Hard cheeses: 12-month Manchego, Cantal<\/span><\/li>

      • No need for long ageing \u2013 enjoyable right away after a short decant<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
