The Cult Wine of Ribera del Duero: PINGUS
PINGUS is more than just a wine; it is a modern-day legend, the flagship creation of Dominio de Pingus by visionary Danish oenologist Peter Sisseck. Since its inaugural 1995 vintage, it has been hailed as a ‘cult wine’ by international critics, instantly becoming the benchmark for Spanish luxury. This wine is crafted from extremely old-vine Tempranillo (Tinto Fino), biodynamically farmed, yielding minuscule quantities of grapes that offer unparalleled concentration and purity.
Tasting Notes (Typical Vintage Profile)
- Appearance: A deep, almost impenetrable, dark picota cherry-red hue.
- Nose: Opulent and complex, the bouquet bursts with intense aromas of ripe dark fruit (blackberry, cassis, plum), crushed violets, elevated by notes of sweet spice, licorice, dark chocolate, and tobacco from exquisitely integrated French oak aging.
- Palate: Powerful and structured, yet possessing remarkable elegance and silkiness. The tannins are abundant, fine, and velvety. A vibrant freshness balances the fruit’s richness, leading to an exceptionally long, persistent, and mineral finish.
Pairing & Service
This exceptional wine requires prolonged aeration, or decanting, and should be served at 62-65°F (17-18°C). It is the perfect partner for the most distinguished dishes.
