BUY TERRIOR HISTORIC PRIORAT BLANC 18 ONLINE | Blanchards - Allston

Unlike the site specific wines of Terroir al L?mit, Terroir Hist?ric is devoted to expressing the complex character of the whole of Priorat in two colors: 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, utilizing the n?gocient tradition of the past to secure a sustainable future. Terroir Hist?ric 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. Hist?ric 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 inox tank for six months. No extraction, no oak. Traditional Mediterranean aromas of citrus peel and orange blossom, savory mountain herbs and aromatic sage. Bright, juicy flavors with a searing vein of acidity pulsing through to the long creamy finish. Wine at both its most basic, and most beautiful. Priorat unplugged.
