      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: There is around 20% new oak in the 2020 Flor de Pingus, and because it has a little younger vines (there was a land-consolidation project in La Horra in 2006!), there'll be some Garnacha starting in 2021 and maybe some oak vats for aging too. All this shows the direction, where he found structure and volume in the palate, with textured tannins. It's harmonious and elegant, aromatic and floral, perfumed and showy, with contained ripeness and around 14% alcohol. The palate is quite powerful, with abundant but fine tannins.
      • James Suckling: Aromas of perfumes and violets with blueberries follow through to a medium body with very fine tannins that run the length of the wine and show muscle and length. Linear and toned. Give this time to open and show you more.

      Producer Information

      Dominio de Pingus is a small producer in the Ribero del Duero region in Spain. 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.
