Domaine de l'Horizon

The young Domaine (established in 2006 by Thomas Teibert) is located on the hillside of Calce/Roussillon (Northern Catalogne) overlooking the Mediterranean Sea - hence the name Horizon. The estate owns 17 ha, mainly old vines (average age over 70 years). We cultivate (in bio-dynamic - certified) only indigenous varieties : Carignan, Grenache Noir (red) and Macabeu, Grenache Gris (white). With tiny yields (about 10 to 20 hl/ha) there are six wines being produced : Mar y Muntanya – a young fruity red, L’Esprit de l’Horizon Blanc et Rouge and from the eldest vineyards Horizon Blanc, Horizon Rosé and Horizon Rouge. Vinification is done in a very natural way with indigenous yeast and the wines age in demi-muid and foudre of Stockinger. SO2 is used, but in low quantities (about 30 mg/ of total SO2). The wines are expressive, vibrant and elegant with aging potential.
