Description
LES MANYES - cult wine and style icon from the Priorat.
Les Manyes - the jewel in Terroir Al Limít's flagship range.
Incredible 100 Parker point wines for the 2016 vintage.
With this single-variety red wine made from very ripe Garnacha grapes, winemaker Dominik Huber once again proves his extraordinary talent. In the middle of the wild landscape of the Priorat, far above the hilly plain, old vines deliver authentic character. A great wine - without a doubt!

Nose: | Black elderberries with ripe black cherries and fresh mountain herbs. Mineral and smoky spice underline the first impression. |
Taste: | Velvety and plump tannins. Forest fruit compote, smoky nuances and mineral memories of damp stone in the sunlight. A subtle bitter note spoils the palate in the long aftertaste - in short: a fantastic, rich structure. |
Expansion: |
55 year old vines. Dominik Huber cultivates the Grenache grapes at an altitude of around eight hundred meters above sea level in the middle of the Montsant mountains. Les Manyes is one of the top locations in Terroir al Limit and delivers grapes with an extravagant character. In the cellar, the winemaker develops the red wine after hand-picking according to the Burgundian tradition, giving it an elegant nature. The Terroir al Limit Les Manyes ages in concrete for sixteen months before being bottled. |
