So, they also started purchasing some of those vineyards in 2022 (they think they need 200 hectares to keep the volume, so the aim is to own maybe half of it).

First made in 1995, it immediately developed a cult status following rave reviews from Robert Parker in the Wine Advocate, and is now regarded as one of the greatest wines made in Spain, hotly sought-after and priced accordingly. The Tempranillo-based wine is known for its density, concentrated black fruit and mineral backbone. The Pingus estate consists of several small parcels of old vines in various locations with average vine age exceeding 65 years. The top wine comes from two vineyards planted in 1929 which total 4.5 hectares (11 acres). One is on gravel and sand over chalky subsoils, and the other is mostly clay. Yields are tiny at around two tonnes per hectare (under one ton per acre). Pingus is fermented in 2000l vats prior to aging in oak barriques – duration and percentage of new oak can vary year by year. Production is only around 6600 bottles annually. This is one tenth of the production of the junior estate wine Flor de Pingus. This wine is made from 16 different vineyard lots, vinified in stainless steel tanks and aged for slightly shorter periods in barriques. Pingus also produces PSI, a more classic Ribero del Duero, which is aged in cement and large wooden vats with minimal barrique usage. Grapes come from selected local growers, who have been encouraged to implement biodynamic vineyards, and are paid according to quality in an arrangement similar to a cooperative. The estate was founded by Peter Sisseck, a Danish oenologist who previously had hailed from Bordeaux. The inaugural vinatge remains to this day as the pinnacle wine released from the estate.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-27T17:19:55-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-25T07:22:07-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Spain","Other_Wine","Producer_Dominio de Pingus","Region_Castilla y Leon","RK220324","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Tempranillo"],"price":15095,"price_min":15095,"price_max":15095,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44532605517962,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2020 | Dominio de Pingus | PSI","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":15095,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/57_ec1ee8f3-a0ab-480f-9f97-044ea289671a.png?v=1711365790"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/57_ec1ee8f3-a0ab-480f-9f97-044ea289671a.png?v=1711365790","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2020 | Dominio de Pingus | PSI at CaskCartel.com","id":26553335742602,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.364,"height":409,"width":149,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/57_ec1ee8f3-a0ab-480f-9f97-044ea289671a.png?v=1711365790"},"aspect_ratio":0.364,"height":409,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/57_ec1ee8f3-a0ab-480f-9f97-044ea289671a.png?v=1711365790","width":149}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2020 | Dominio de Pingus | PSI\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore affordable than its elders, Pingus and Flor de Pingus, PSI in the 2020 vintage expresses a different sensibility of its creator all in power, freshness, including vibrant acidity.
