2021 Terroir al Límit Priorat Pedra de Guix

Terroir al Límit continues to push the boundaries of Priorat winemaking, crafting rare and compelling wines that showcase the region’s rugged beauty and ancient terroirs. Pedra de Guix is a benchmark example—a Vi de Coster (1er Cru equivalent) that rivals the world’s great whites in depth and precision.

This unique blend combines Grenache Blanc from Poboleda’s schist soils, Macabeo from Torroja’s alluvial plots, and Pedro Ximénez from El Lloar’s chalky, gypsum-rich terrain. The 50 to 80-year-old vines yield grapes of remarkable intensity, which are basket-pressed and fermented naturally in concrete vats before ageing for 11 months. The result is a wine that channels the rocky terrain of its origins with clarity and tension.

Aromatic notes of dried pineapple, lemon peel, and pine nuts are supported by a saline edge and stony minerality. The palate is finely textured, with bright acidity, subtle phenolic grip, and a long, savoury finish that keeps evolving. Lighter on its feet than earlier iterations, this vintage balances freshness and structure with masterful precision.

Pedra de Guix is not just a rare white Priorat; it’s a benchmark wine that underscores Terroir al Límit’s place among Spain’s most sought-after artisan producers.

"The wine is floral, vertical and a lot less oxidative... with very good depth and freshness. It's a different profile of wine."

"More intensity here with a very subtle nutty edge... saline and concentrated in flavor but nothing hefty here. Fine tannins and bright acidity extend to a long, savory finish."
