Description

Dominio de Pingus was founded in 1995 by Danish winemaker, Peter Sisseck. With incredibly small production of extremely old-vine Tempranillo, he is one of the most acclaimed producers in the Ribera del Duero region and has a global reputation for thoroughly modern, highly characterful and long-lived wines. The 2011 was warm and this an incredibly rich Pingus but it never feels out of control and exhibits remarkable balance for a wine of 15.5%. A better option for short to medium term consumption, this is ideal for drinking now and should hit full maturity in the next 3-5 years.
