Pingus
Ribera del Duero, Castilla y León
The word “archetype” should be used sparingly, but it is an appropriate descriptor for Peter Sisseck’s Pingus, the wine that reimagined the stylistic notion of what tempranillo from Ribera del Duero could be.
Struck by Ribera del Duero’s wealth of old vines, Peter Sisseck was drawn to the potential of the terroir. He introduced biodynamic farming practices and focused on low yields to make wines of power and complexity with an exotic and intensely aromatic makeup.
Pingus and the second bottling, Flor De Pingus, are coveted wines of distinctive character that somehow balance immense richness with undeniable elegance.
