Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Dits del Terra shows lower alcohol and more freshness, and it has an herbal note and feels very young and undeveloped. Like most of the 2021s, they shortened the time of aging, and it was completely in concrete and didn't touch any oak (they sold all the foudres). There's purity and precision, elegance and freshness. 4,098 bottles were filled in June 2022.

Description
Nestled in the sunny south-facing slate hills of Priorat, Terroir al Límit Dits del Terra is born, a wine that defies expectations. Produced from Carignan vineyards over 60 years old, this wine is not what one would typically expect from such old and robust vines. However, it is precisely this gap between expectation and surprising creation that makes Dits de Terra so iconic.
The vineyard, one of Terroir al Límit's original vineyards, pays homage to the cypress trees that shade the region's historic Hermitages. The grapes are harvested by hand, fermented with whole bunches for 7 to 10 days in concrete tanks and then aged for 8 months in concrete.
Taste
The care and attention with which Terroir al Límit Dits del Terra is made elevates it to a fine, complex and fluid expression of different terroirs. Despite the darkness in the glass, it surprises with an ephemeral lightness in aroma and flavour. Airy black fruits and lingering herbaceousness enhance the soft spice and suspended movement across the palate. Notes of anise, fresh fennel and rose are underscored by a fluid web of balsamic accents, never heavy or broad.
