Score 95/100 · Drink 2015-2028, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, May 2011
The 2008 Nit de Nin is a glass-coating opaque purple color with an expressive nose of liquid minerality, white flowers, Asian spices, black cherry, and black plum. On the palate tapenade and licorice flavors emerge along with enough ripe tannin to support 5-6 years of additional cellaring. This lengthy effort will offer a drinking window extending from 2015 to 2028. The Nit de Nin is the personal project of Ester Nin, vineyard manager of Clos Erasmus. The tiny production consists of 3 barrels sourced from 80- to 100-year-old vines of the Mas d’En Cacador vineyard in the village of Porrera. Importer: Eric Solomon Selections, Charlotte, NC; tel. (704) 358-1565
