Historic Blanco Terroir Al Limit is a delicious white wine from Priorat showing the inexhaustible potential of the region. At the same time it bears the signature of the magician of old vines, Eben Sadie.
Eben Sadie is now one of the world's leading winemakers and has worked with old vines at important terroirs around the world. In 2001, he met Dominik Huber at Mas Martinet and their passion for wine and gastronomy automatically made them friends. With the help of the Perez family of Mas Martinet winery, they bought grapes and lent some space at a winery to make their own wine. Their first vintage was in 2001, and in 2003, they moved to a small cellar in Torroja, in the heart of Priorat. Historic Blanco has a different philosophy from Terroir Al Limit wines as they concern wines from different sites that reflect the personality and style of Priorat. With this move they strengthen their relationship with the vine growers of the area but also the return of the young ones to the old abandoned vineyards of the region. The Historic Terroir Al Limit comes from vineyards from 9 different villages (Bellmunt, Gratallops, El Lloar, Escaladei, Poboleda, Porrera, Torroja, Vilella Alta, Vilella Baixa) and from vines 35 - 50 years old. The blend consists of 75% Grenache Blanc and 25% Macabeu. The wine ferments and matures in concrete tanks, for 8 months. It is bottled unfiltered and without other interventions and it is simply amazing.
