Terroir Al Limit Soc. Lda. Priorat Terroir Historic Blanc
Històric Blanc is a blend of Priorat's traditional white varieties:
Grenache Blanc (75 %) and Macabeu (25 %). Harnessing the simple, honest power of great fruit means a truly hands off approach in the cellar: hand harvest, whole cluster naturally ferment, and transfer to cement tank for eight months. No steel, no extraction, no oak. Traditional Mediterranean aromas of citrus peel and orange blossom, savoury mountain herbs and aromatic sage. Bright, juicy flavours with a searing vein of acidity pulsing through to the long creamy finish. Wine at both its most basic, and most beautiful. Priorat unplugged.
From The Producer
Unlike the site specific wines of Terroir Al Limit, Terroir Històric is devoted to expressing the complex character of the whole of Priorat in two colours: white and red. While the project launched in 2015 is a remarkable incubator for new plantings from the clay and schist soils of Montsant, it is also a liquid homage, utilising the négocient tradition of the past to secure a sustainable future. Terroir Històric encourages young farmers to not only return to family vineyards in the region’s 9 villages in and around Torroja, but also transition these family vines to organic farming. Històric Blanc is a blend of Priorat’s traditional white varieties: Grenache Blanc (75 %) and Macabeu (25 %).
