This bottling captures the power and finesse of Priorat, delivering layers of dark cherry, blackberry, and Mediterranean herbs. The concentration is beautifully balanced by a vibrant freshness and fine-grained tannins. A wine of depth and elegance, suitable for cellaring or enjoying now.

About The Producer

After obtaining a degree in Biology at the University of Barcelona then a subsequent degree in Enology, with an emphasis on biodynamic and organic viticulture, Ester Nin took a position at Mas Martinet in the village of Porrera in 2001. Raised in the Alt Penedes, she felt right at home in the Priorat and eventually became the viticulturist at Clos i Terrasses where she transitioned the vineyards to biodynamic farming. In 2004 Ester bought a 7 acre parcel of old vine Garnatxa and Carinyena in one of the highest sites in the Priorat. A few years earlier, Carles Ortiz from Barcelona, and a trained Enologist in his own right, had purchased 12 acres of vineyards outside of Porrera called Finca les Planetes. Both Carles and Ester were early proponents of biodynamics in the Priorat, both lived in Porrera and both were young and available and thus Familia Nin-Ortiz was born.
