An epiphany here with its wild, tangy nose full of white pepper, mezcal, blood oranges, forest floor and dried herbs. Really broad and precise, with a chunk of fine, mealy tannins that knit seamlessly on the palate. Nice...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, September 2022

The impressive 2021 Les Manyes was very young and a little closed, even reductive and took time in the glass to take off. It slowly developed an acute note of violets and wild plants. It has a little more color than the...

The 2021 Les Manyes is 100% Garnatxa Peluda from Montaña del Montsant in Priorat. Sourced from clay and calcareous soils, this wine is an exception in the area. Fermented and aged in concrete vats, it’s a light garnet red...

The 2021 Terroir al Limit Priorat Garnacha Les Manyes is a remarkable wine hailing from the Priorat region in Spain. Produced by Terroir al Limit, this wine is made exclusively from the Grenache varietal, also known as Garnacha. With an alcohol content of 13.5%, this red wine is sealed with a traditional cork closure.

James Suckling, a well-known wine critic, awarded this wine an exceptional score of 99 points. He describes it as "an epiphany" with a "wild, tangy nose full of white pepper, mezcal, blood oranges, forest floor and dried herbs." Suckling emphasizes its broad and precise palate, noting the "chunk of fine, mealy tannins that knit seamlessly." He also appreciates the "nice bitterness at the end to seal it up before an extremely long, nervy finish," concluding that it is "irresistibly attractive now, but can hold" for future enjoyment. Suckling's review highlights the wine's complexity and potential for aging, making it a standout choice for Grenache enthusiasts.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also provided a glowing review, scoring the wine at 97 points. The review notes that the 2021 Les Manyes was "very young and a little closed, even reductive," but it gradually opened up to reveal "an acute note of violets and wild plants." The wine is described as "very attractive, juicy and easy to drink," with a freshness that surpasses the 2019 vintage. The reviewer draws a comparison to Château Rayas, indicating a high level of elegance and fruit-driven character. However, it is noted that the wine "still doesn’t have the complexity that it should gain over time," suggesting that it will continue to develop and improve with age. The wine was bottled in June 2022, with a limited production of 2,688 bottles.

In summary, the 2021 Terroir al Limit Priorat Garnacha Les Manyes is a highly regarded wine with stellar reviews. It boasts a complex array of aromas and flavors, with significant aging potential. Both James Suckling and Robert Parker's Wine Advocate agree on its exceptional quality, making it a noteworthy addition to any wine collection.
