Product Description
Details

A few years ago, the prestigious winemaker Dominik Huber, owner of world-class Priorat winery Terroir al Limit, decided to expand his operations to the neighbouring DO Montsant after realizing the huge potential of the region. That was the origin of Terroir Sense Fronteres wine, the winery behind Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre.

A varietal Grenache wine, this Spanish red wine is produced, as all of Mr. Huber's wines, in a Burgundian style.

The grapes were picked up by hand and transported to the cellar in little boxes. Once there, they were destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts. Human intervention during the process was minimal, with no punch-overs or pump-downs whatsoever. Alcoholic fermentation lasted about 8 days.

After that, Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre 2022 was aged for 6 months in the tanks before being bottled.

We suggest that you aerate this red wine from Montsant 30 minutes before drinking.

Appearance

The wine Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre is medium ruby with a garnet rim.

Nose

Remarkably pure, this varietal Grenache is exhilarating. Pristine aromas of red fruit and Mediterranean herbs, with a touch of liquorice. This Crianza red wine also suggests some mineral and floral remembrances.

Palate

Juicy, fresh and supple, this wine of Terroir al Límit showcases the virtues of a non-interventionist winemaking philosophy. Lifted and spacious, it is remarkably pleasant and drinkable, and this while remaining interesting. Fruit, herbs and flowers combine in the nicest way. Medium-long finish. 

Our personal opinion

Fruit-driven and really engaging, Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre 2022 delivers great drinking pleasure.
