Little nose. Some fruit and honey notes. Comes up short

Priorat wine fair 2019 (and related events); 5/2/2019-5/9/2019 (Tarragona and various places in Priorat) : At the beginning we were jumping from one stall to another because the place was really crowded, so please bear with me. We started at the Terroir al Limit and then we moved to some Montsant producer and then to Terroir al Limit again. Entry level Terroir al Limit. Might be the only white they produce and it is good. All about minerals and very …

@ VINEUM. Consistent with previous note.

Wine Tasting Group - Grenache - Feb. 10, 2019 (Javier's Home) : 75% Grenache blanc, 25% Macabeo. Smoky, flinty aromas with tart apples and unripe pears, minerals and a hint of honeysuckle. Palate was more fruit with apples and unripe pears, a bit of mango and lemons, with plenty of minerals. Very enjoyable - complex but goes down very easily.

Small tasting glass @ VINEUM during service, so a brief note. A bit reductive, following candied citrus and apricot. Pretty herbacious too...

2016 vintage

Bu en succ en compagnie de Guylaine à Granby! Fait de Grenache blanc: 75 % et Maccabeu: 25 % Très rare des Priorat blanc...vieilli 7 mois en cuve de béton. Riche avec une impression de gras, pas mal de matière. Il y a du miel, des agrumes, et un peu de pétrole au nez. En bouche, des abricots et des melons avec une impression de tannins...belle finale longue sur une impression de minérale. Bien même si pas donné! Notes complémentaires: …

SAQ N° 13588691 39$ Nouveau projet de Dominik Huber chez Terroir Al Limit. Faire un assemblage de vins de négoce des différents villages de l'appellation. Une sorte de synthèse. Ici, on est sur 75% grenache blanc, 25% macabeu. Robe dorée. Beaucoup de cristaux d'acide tartrique au fond. Bouquet racoleur sur les fleurs jaunes, les agrumes confits, la pomme blete. Bouche d'un bel équilibre entre un côté gras cireux et des relents de calcaire. Poivre blanc. Belle longueur. Un ensemble assez …

Medium darker yellow color. Almost orange tinge but don’t think there’s any skin contact. Quite oxidative and savory, but not particularly complex. No where near as impressive as other whites they do.

2015 vintage

Nice almost golden and clear. Green apples, apricot, ripe lemon and melon and medium intense on the nose. Mouth follows nose adding a bit peppery notes. Medium weight and medium+ finish. An overall decent effort

Dominik Huber of Terroir al Limit - Priorat Talk and Tasting (Texas Wine School, Houston, Tx) : A: Medium lemon N: Medium (-) intensity and developing Chamomile, orange peel, dried lemon, honeysuckle P: Dry, medium (+) acid, medium alcohol, medium body, medium intensity and medium finish C: This is one to drink up. It feels a little hot in the throat despite only having 13% abv. Good Quality wine. I would like more intensity. Bit underwhelming for me. At $28 …

A bit oxidative style, but still fresh. Very good with food (salmon & salsify).

2015 vintage

Some reductive aromas that disappeared after a while. Fresh, intense and floral on the nose. Fresh and powerful in the mouth.

Spanish Fiesta Sydney 2017 (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street) : medium minus intensity aromas of peachy fruit, crushed chalk, floral top notes on the nose. It's a little sour and ungenerous on the palate though. Food might help, especially seafood.

2016 vintage

Interesting and different. Not bad, neutral and quaffable. Some oxidation

2015 vintage

Okay, some glycerin, waxy but some nice fruit

2016 vintage

Really loving this Spanish white made from Garnatxa Blanca and Macabeu. Golden yellow in the glass with a touch of honey on the nose. In the mouth there's layers of pear, honeysuckle, a hint of key lime, tart acidity and a long finish.

2016 vintage

See prior note. Honest Bob was very honest. Not undrinkable or even totally unenjoyable, but whatta lotta bitterness. Somewhat puckery. Would be a disaster,but has the body.

2015 vintage

From 75cl, excellent unbranded cork. P+P (which was a very good idea, because it disintegrated into an oxidized mess after 60 minutes). Unhealthy urine-sample yellow-orange colour; scent of urine (auto-suggestion?), sulphur and aromatic herbs, perhaps a very old, oxidized retsina; full-bodied entry quickly curdles in the mouth with a pleasant astringency; the best part is some pure-ish lemon on the mid-palate, which persists to the mouth-puckering, unpleasantly raw finish. Oh dear, this is another trendy "natural wine", mistakenly fermented and …

2015 vintage

light gold colored, slightly oxidative, peach and pear notes, dry and has weight. This held up well over dinner, good with fish
