Planetes de Nin is the estate's second wine - it has been made for some years now. But recently, a new version was launched: the Planetes Garnatxes en Amforas, a special cuvée made only with Grenaches fermented in amphores (dolia). This natural wine is made without adding any sulphur.
The wines were planted in 1998 on slate soils, at an altitude of 350m. The yield is only 10hl per ha. Thus, the production is very small: 1,200 bottles.
Vinification
Natural wine, without any added sulphur. 4 months maceration then 10 months ageing in amphores/dolia.
Storage potential
5 years.
To serve
Serve at 18°C after decanting.
Trial analysis
Red Burgundy colour. Complex nose. Give it some air, and pepper, fruit notes will appear.
A lively wine on the palate, which combines strength and elegance.
Mineral and fresh in the finish.
