Wine Spectator
This syrupy red offers cocoa, espresso, balsamic and licorice flavors in a thick texture, supported by ripe, chewy tannins. There's just enough acidity to keep this balanced. Drink now through 2016. 1,000 cases made.

Wine Advocate
The 2006 Finca la Planeta is composed of an atypical Priorato blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Garnacha aged for 1 year in French oak. It gives up earthy, mineral, and crushed stone aromas along with pepper, espresso, and black cherry. Structured and concentrated in the mouth, it will evolve for 2-3 years and deliver optimal drinking from 2012 to 2021.

($50; 88% cabernet sauvignon with 12% grenache) Ruby-red. Redcurrant and cherry on the nose, with complicating notes of tobacco, cracked pepper and dried rose. Fleshy red berry and bitter cherry flavors show a seamless quality, with gentle acidity providing lift. Relatively open-knit wine with very good finishing cling and sweetness and fine-grained tannins.
