Also 100% Carinyena fermented with 100% stems, yet from a slightly warmer terroir, the 2015 Dits del Terra is more rounded, supple and sexy, with tons of kirsch, black raspberries, pepper, incense and iris aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, gorgeously layered and undeniably beautiful on the palate, it has ripe, rounded tannins and a great finish that keeps you coming back to the glass. This cuvée gets its name from the nearly 90-year-old vines of Carinyena that give the impression fingers clawing into the schist soils of this site near the village of Torroja. It’s one of the first vineyards that Dominik and his then partner, Eben Sadie, acquired when they started making wine together in the Priorat. Where the l’Arbossar come from a cooler, north facing parcel, this comes from a warmer, southerly hillside.
