Terroir Sense Fronteres, Vertebra-Figuera, 2021

In case you’re confused, ‘old af’ means ‘old as fudge’*

And in the case of Vertebra Figuera, that means 80 years. Old vines are so special because they yield fewer, more concentrated grapes.

The vines also go through a wild ride of hot, sunny days and cool, chalky nights. Perfect for complexity.

Terroir Sense Fronteres began as a quest to harness the unique minerality and soul of Montsant and give liquid voice to the restraint and freshness of the complex hills surrounding Priorat through the special Grenache vines that grow there.

You must conclude that it's been a successful quest - their wines are roundly loved by critics.
