2021 Familia Nin-Ortiz "Planetes - Classic" Priorat
96
Wine Advocate
Review Date: 05/2024The 2021 Planetes de Nin Clàssic is a blend of 46% Garnacha, 25% Garnacha Peluda and 29% full-cluster Carignan, the blend they were aiming for and achieved in 2019. The wine has peppery and spicy notes, with a very fine thread and is super elegant on the palate. It's subtle, balanced and elegant, nuanced and insinuating. The wine spent 18 months in 3,200-liter oak foudre. It follows the style of 2019 and 2020. It has 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.2 and 5.4 grams of acidity. (LG)

Notes
Based in Porrera, Nin-Ortiz is seen by many as possibly the most exciting of Priorat's third wave, nipping on the heels of pioneers such as Clos Mogador, Mas Martinet, Alvaro Palacios, and Clos Erasmus. She and her partner Carles Ortiz employ biodynamic practices in their vineyards, all located in Porrera. They are of the school of thought that favors a blend of Garnacha and Cariñena, without any foreign grape varieties included in the blend. Ester and Carles' humble, tiny production winery is seen by those in-the-know as ascendant, and in a relatively quick clip of time it has reached the top echelon, earning a spot amongst the top five producers in the zone.
