About this wine:
Visionary winemaker Peter Sisseck established his flagship PINGUS Ribera del Duero wine as a benchmark for greatness in Spanish wine, regularly scoring 99-100 points. Pingus is one of the very few Spanish wines that has joined the ranks of the world's most coveted wines. Like Coche-Dury's Corton-Charlemagne, Guigal's single-vineyard Côte Rôties, or Giacomo Conterno's Monfortino, Pingus is known and admired wherever great wine is discussed. According to Vinous Media's Josh Raynolds, "Peter Sisseck’s influence on Ribera del Duero’s worldwide reputation cannot be overstated. His Pingus is now considered to be one of Spain’s and the world’s greatest red wines."
Ratings & Reviews
99 Points - Vinous:
"The 2022 Pingus confirms the potential of this exceptional vineyard in Ribera del Duero. From a slightly structured vintage, the old vines compensate with elegance. Aromas of precise plum, a touch of cedar, black cherry and delicate underbrush unfold, followed by blood orange peel. The palate delivers pure cherry with chalky tannins and a vibrant core that activates with finesse. Deep and expressive, the fruit-driven length and subtle grip speak to its fine balance. Pingus remains a benchmark for the elegant Ribera. (Drink between 2025-2050)"- Joaquín Hidalgo (6/25)
98 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The bottled 2022 Pingus is quite dark and feels ripe, powerful and a little shy, coming through as serious. It has notes of ripe peach, dark berries and notions of soil. It was vinified with 25% full clusters. It has ripeness and concentration and is powerful, serious, quite tannic, chalky and slightly dusty, with a dry finish. Since 2012, they have used 100% barrels that have had Flor de Pingus (and perhaps PSI) for 12 months, and for Sisseck, maybe that makes the wine a little more reserved, more closed; and if it had a small percentage of new barrels, it would probably be more open and expressive. It's very long and has very fine tannins. Around 8,000 bottles were filled in early July 2024."
