Pingus 2006 is a full-bodied Ribera del Duero red wine produced by Peter Sisseck from old Tempranillo vines. The 2006 vintage’s warm, even conditions yielded small, thick-skinned berries, giving the wine its dark concentration and seamless tannic structure. It captures the estate’s precision at full maturity, with perfumed black fruit, cedar and mineral depth held in tension by lively acidity.

Opaque purple. Powerful, mineral-driven aromas of blackberry, blueberry, creme de cassis, incense and floral oils. Fresh dark berry flavors are youthfully crunchy and strikingly pure, with mounting spiciness and minerality. Silky tannins add support to the broad, palate-staining fruit but quickly fade away, allowing the exotic dark berry flavors to stand out. The mineral element clings impressively on the long, sappy, sweet finish. A superb showing, and no doubt the last time I'll get to try this as it costs more per bottle than my car is worth.
