Amazing story as that of Dominio de Pingus. Created in 1995 by Peter Sisseck, a Danish (!), this estate a few kilometres from Vega Sicilia has become a cult in less than 15 years.
Flor de Pingus is the second wine, coming from the Dominio de Pingus and neighbouring parcels acquired by fermage, 100% tempranillo 35 to 50 years old, biodynamic since 2005. Delicious and elegant, Flor is a modern vision of Ribera del Duero.
Rated 95/100 by Joaquin Hidalgo - Vinous (2021).
Also rated 95+/100 by Wine Advocate « The 2021 Flor de Pingus is a village wine from La Horra, made with small vinications by plot and then a blending exercise, so it's the wine they feel is most their style. They look for texture, looking for a delicate and elegant wine. The nose is very subtle and harmonious, super clean and with a lot of focus. There are no traces of oak on the nose. This has a velvety texture, an elegant mouthfeel and some restraint, and it is fresher than the wine from 2020. There's a very ne thread, with chalky and very elegant tannins. »
PSI (Peter Sisseck Initiative?) is the wine of a group of producers brought together by Mr. Sisseck according to precise specifications: tempranillo plots at least 30 years old, necessarily biodynamically grown, gentle extractions, long macerations and maturing practically without wood. A superior fruity wine, fine and with a great tannic softness.
The 2021 vintage is rated 96/100 by Joaquin Hidalgo (Vinous) "This 2021 is a distinctive Ribera del Duero with excellent nuance and agility" (November 2023)
