The Estate / Distillery

Since Dominik Huber launched Terroir al Limit in 2001, he has pushed the boundaries of what one could expect from the Priorat. Big wines here are easy to make as the region is blessed with hot, dry summers with plenty of sunshine. But seeking balance, purity, and complexity is a much more difficult task, and one that can be far more revealing. Dominik freely admits that his goals for Terroir al Limit are guided by a Burgundian sense of terroir combined with a Mediterranean-inspired appreciation for harmony, seasonal cuisine, and wines shared with friends at the table.

”I see myself as an artisan. I have always seen it as a challenge to interlink intellectuality, sensitivity and practical work. Torroja del Priorat has become the centre of my life and has stolen my heart. I feel that here it is possible to live in the traditional Mediterranean way, with a healthy coexistence between body and spirit. I believe I can offer this philosophy to the world with my wines.” – Dominik Huber
