Dominio de Pingus in the Ribera del Duero was founded in 1995 by Danish winemaker, Peter Sisseck. Though considered a second wine, Flor de Pingus is a wonderful wine in its own right, made from old vine Tempranillo raised in a combination of stainless steel and oak barrels. The 2017 vintage saw significantly lower yields but superbly concentrated fruit with pronounced tannins. This is a ripe, but muscular, release with deeply intense notes of cassis, black cherry, wild herbs, cinnamon, clove and subtle toasty oak.

Vinous
Inky, bright-rimmed ruby. Intensely perfumed aromas of ripe dark berries, cherry preserves, vanilla, pipe tobacco and candied flowers, with a spicy flourish adding lift. Stains the palate with concentrated black and blue fruit, floral pastille and spicecake flavors that become more lively as the wine opens up. The floral and cherry notes carry through the strikingly long, sweet, youthfully tannic finish, which features a hint of candied licorice.Josh Raynolds1st February 2021
