Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2022 Arbossar comes from the north-facing vineyard planted in 1910 that names the wine, a 1.6-hectare steep plot, one of the oldest in the region, at 400 meters above sea level on slate and granite soils. The full clusters fermented with indigenous yeasts, and the wine matured in concrete for eight months. It has a moderate 13.5% alcohol with a pH of 3.6 and mellow acidity. This is very Cariñena, with its rustic side, with character, some earthy notes, hints of herbs, berries and flowers and a mineral, iron-like note developing with time in the glass. It has power and energy, medium ripeness and very fine tannins, with a very balanced mouthfeel. 4,488 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2023.

Description
Terroir al Límit Arbossar is an authentic expression of Priorat, combining tradition and boldness in every bottle. Produced by Dominik Huber, this wine is the result of a challenge: to revitalise the old Carignan vines of the L'Arbossar vineyard.
These plantations, some of which date back to 1910, are among the oldest in the region. Situated on steep slopes of 1.6 hectares, these vines benefit from the unique characteristics of the llicorella (slate) soils, at an altitude of between 350 and 400 metres.
Winemaking
Terroir al Límit Arbossar is made using a whole-cluster fermentation technique for 7 and 10 days, and aged for 8 months in cement vats.
Taste
Terroir al Límit Arbossar unfolds with an aromatic palette that combines red and blue fruits, complemented by herbal notes of rosemary and sage. These aromas reflect the duality of the Priorat's rugged landscape and the interaction between the sun, the shade and the wind that blows through the vines.
On the palate, the wine surprises with its fresh, crisp fruit, showing exceptional elegance and concentration. Its purity is almost pristine, accompanied by electric acidity and a finish that lingers. It is a wine that encapsulates three cultures: the French soul, the German mind and the Spanish heart.
