Note di degustazione
60% Cariñena (whole bunch), 40% Garnacha. A little bit of meaty/savoury reduction. Meaty and rich on the palate. Super-smooth and dense but not heavy, the alcohol well integrated. Still has good freshness even with all this robust fruit and texture. Chewy. (JH)

Similarly, the 2014 Planetes de Nin is a blend of Garnacha and Cariñena, but the percentages were reversed, 40% of the former and 60% of the later; they had taken some Garnacha for the amphora wine and therefore the Planetes has less of it. It's ripe, a little heady (15.5% alcohol) but with good freshness and acidity. It matured in two large oak foudres and amphorae for 17 months. It might not be your typical Porrera, because it's certainly a lot more elegant, perfumed and refined. The palate is equally elegant, with subtle minerality and great freshness. There are 8,344 bottles produced.
