  • Robert Parker, February 2017, Score: 94/100

    The 2014 Flor de Pingus could very well be the finest vintage of this cuvée ever. It could be considered their 'village' wine, as all the grapes come from La Horra, from four different quarters (El Pino, Fuentearriba, Fuentenarro and Castillo); they are mostly old vines, as they have some 25 hectares of those in the village, mostly from the 1950s. In the future it will also have some grapes from younger vineyards they planted 'à l'ancien', with a massale selection of Amelia, riparia rootstocks, etc. The wine is very aromatic and expressive, floral and spicy, with the oak nicely folded into the fruit, which is ripe without excess, and the alcohol is also nicely disguised, as it's high but does not show. It's a powerful and full-bodied vintage for this cuvée, but keeping its approachability and appeal. The tannins are very fine and the finish quite remarkable. A mini-Pingus at a very different price. Drink 2017-2022. 94/100

Peter Sisseck in a Danish winemaker who burst onto the scene in the mid 1990s with his small, exquisitely tended 4 ha estate in Spain's Ribera del Duero. Peter is nothing if not a master of Tempranillo grown at high altitude, and since its first vintage (1995) Pingus has gone on to become Spain's pre-eminent cult wine. Peter and his team also make a second label, Flor de Pingus, from Tempranillo grown around the small town of La Horra, just to the east of Dominio de Pingus. 'PSI' is Peter's latest project in Ribera del Duero, for which he has joined forces with local growers to make a wine which represents the pinnacle of old vine Tempranillo in the region. His attention to detail in the cellar is astonishing, where traditional winemaking techniques are combined with the precision of their in-house atomic laboratory. His wines have a unique style and grace.Read less

Region

Ribera del Duero

The Duero valley cuts a swathe across central northern Spain all the way to Portugal where it is called the Douro and is famous as the home of port. On the Spanish side, a relatively new but significant and exciting area for wine production has grown up around the city of Valladolid and was granted DO status in 1982. Ribera del Duero's potential was spotted long before in the middle of the 19th century at Bodegas Vega Sicilia, Spain's undisputed equivalent of a first growth Claret. High above sea-level, Ribera del Duero is an area of extreme temperatures with the potential to produce deep-coloured, intensely flavoured red wines from tempranillo grapes (known locally as tinto fino). The picture is not straightforward as some producers have started favouring an overly-extracted style which appeals to certain elements of the media. Additionally, often producers do not own their own vineyards, so the grape growers have a stranglehold on what to charge for their grapes and wine prices have risen dramatically as a result. However, many producers are making outstanding wines, which are still great value for money.
