The Históric Negre is made from 75% Grenache and 25% Carignan—roughly the same blend as used in this region a generation ago. A healthy dose of the Grenache was grown in La Morera, high in the Montsant ranges on clay/limestone soils, and the remainder of the fruit came from vines throughout Priorat, grown on the slate and schist, providing savoury minerality. Fermented whole-cluster and with indigenous yeasts, the wine was then aged for six months in a 5000-litre concrete tank.
