Sherrydruen pedro ximénez i totalt nye klæder.
Terra De Cuques kan oversættes som ”Insekternes Jord” og tager sit navn fra områdets ildfluer. De er ekstremt følsomme over for kemisk forurening, og deres tilstedeværelse indikerer et sundt miljø i vinmarken.
Vinen er lavet på den klassiske grønne drue pedro ximénez, som man ellers forbinder med de søde sherry-vine i Andalusien. I Priorat laver Dominik Huber en intens, frisk hvidvin på druen. Ydermere iblandes lidt tidligt høstet moscatel de alejandría (muscat) for at opnå et mildt krydret element.

The white 2017 Terra de Cuques Blanc has a marine nose with hints of iodine and salt, slowly showing some white fruit, Mediterranean herbs, fennel and dry stones. Even if 2017 was a warmer year, this blend of 90% Pedro Ximénez and 10% Moscatel kept its alcohol at 13.5%. The skin contact was shortened, and the wine is subtler and finer, with ultra fine tannins and a textured mouthfeel. This is also cleaner, with less lees aromas, and the wine is sharp and more defined. I'd never say this is a warm vintage. They believe the only way to fight climate change is with work in the vineyard, and their vines are balanced and take the heat and extremes better. It just works. 6,668 bottles were filled in June 2019.

Very intense aromas of honeycomb and honey with flint and crushed stone. Orange blossom. Full body. Layered and flavorful. Fascinating wine. 90% pedro ximenez and 10% muscat. Drink now.
