94+/100 Punkte Robert Parker Wine Advocate, Dezember 2020

"Cariñena Blanca is finally being considered as a grape to be allowed by the Priorat appellation thanks to the Nin-Ortiz family, who keepsproducing their 2019 Planetes de Nin Carinyena Blanca with the obsessionto have a white Priorat that keeps good acidity and is not heavy. So,they used plant material from 20 plants they found in the old vineyardsto graft 100 plants in their Planetes property, and after the firsttrials, they regrafted another 3,000 vines. The wine is 13.15% alcoholand has a pH of 3.2 even in a warm year like 2019, when they picked thegrapes during the first half of September. The clusters were pressed andleft to macerate with the skins for 24 hours and the juice let to settleand put to ferment in 300-liter oak barrels with indigenous yeasts, aslow fermentation of between 40 and up to 180 days. The wine matured fornine months. The warm vintage made the grapes ripen properly, asCariñena Blanca has difficulties ripening (this is the first time thewine is over 13%), and it has more flavors and aromas. It also has alittle more volume and is textured and richer, with deep flavors whilekeeping the freshness and acidity and with a salty touch in the finish.3,560 bottles were filled in June 2020."
