The Les Manyes Priorat comes very close to that, having been vinified with only 0.5 grams of residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this balanced red wine is wonderfully silky and powerful. Its pronounced fruit acidity gives the Les Manyes Priorat an exceptionally fresh and lively character on the palate. In the finish, this youthful red wine from the Catalonia region delights with exceptional length, again revealing hints of raspberry and sour cherry. In the aftertaste, additional mineral notes emerge from the clay-dominated soils. Vinification of the Terroir Al Limit Les Manyes Priorat The basis for the balanced Les Manyes Priorat from Spain is grapes from the Garnacha variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Catalonia. The vines dig their roots deep into clay soils here. A significant influence on the ripening of the grapes is also the fact that the Garnacha grapes thrive under the influence of a warm climate. This is reflected in particularly well-ripened grapes and a relatively high alcohol content in the wine. Once the perfect physiological ripeness is ensured, the grapes for the Les Manyes Priorat are exclusively hand-picked without the use of coarse and hardly selective machines. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly transported to the press house. Here, they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation follows in large wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the elegant Les Manyes Priorat is aged in oak barrels for several months. Food Recommendation for the Les Manyes Priorat from Terroir Al Limit Enjoy this red wine from Spain best at a temperature of 15 - 18°C as an accompaniment to spicy lamb curry, red onions filled with couscous and apricots, or arugula penne.
