The 2021 Familia Nin-Ortiz Planetes de Nin Blanca is a white wine from Priorat, Spain, crafted from 100% white Carignan (Carinyena Blanca). As this grape variety is not yet officially recognized by the Priorat appellation, the label bears the designation "Vi Blanc de Varietats Antigues" (White Wine of Ancient Varieties). With only approximately 4,400 to 4,466 bottles produced, its availability is quite limited. The wine undergoes a unique aging process, spending 6 months in clay amphorae followed by 3 months in oak barrels. Familia Nin-Ortiz is committed to biodynamic farming across all its vineyards, being among the pioneering biodynamic experts in Priorat. The vines thrive on the region's characteristic Llicorella slate soils.
The 2021 Planetes de Nin Blanca exhibits moderate alcohol content and very high acidity, resulting in a sharp and austere profile. It imparts a chalky sensation and a stony mouthfeel. On the nose, it is subtle with delicate notes reminiscent of white fruit. The palate is notably more powerful and expressive, offering volume, freshness, and pronounced acidity, culminating in a dry and elegant finish. It has been described as mineral-driven with high acidity, making it an excellent food wine. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarded this wine 94 points. 【Rare 100% Carinyena Blanca from biodynamic Priorat vineyards with high acidity and stony minerality】
Food Pairing: This wine is an excellent accompaniment to tuna, warm salads, grilled seafood, and rice with fish. Its high acidity and distinct mineral qualities also make it a superb match for seafood or dishes that benefit from a crisp, refreshing counterpoint.
Event suggestions: This unique and limited-production white wine is ideal for wine enthusiasts and collectors seeking distinctive Priorat expressions. It is well-suited for special dinners, wine tastings focused on indigenous varieties, or as a thoughtful gift for those who appreciate biodynamic and terroir-driven wines.
