Dominio de Pingus - Ribera del Duero Flor de Pingus 2022
94-95/100
Robert Parker
"A delicate, fragrant Tempranillo of incredible elegance, sublimated by Peter Sisseck!"
"The nose of the 2022 Flor de Pingus has a peach note (vine peach!). It's fragrant, elegant, more fruity, tender, delicate and ripe without excess (but perhaps the ripest of the 2022s, perhaps the influence of the young vines). The palate is tender, with bright tannins and a rounder feel. The finish is dry, even a little austere, with fine chalky notes. Overall, the 2022s have done very well, much better than expected. [...] 2025-2032" (Robert Parker 2024)

About the wine:
The nose of the 2022 Flor de Pingus has a hint of peach (peche de vigne!). It's fragrant, elegant, fruitier, tender, delicate and ripe without excess (but perhaps the ripest of the 2022s, perhaps the influence of the young vines). The palate is tender, with bright tannins and a rounder feel. The finish is dry, even a little austere, with fine chalky notes. Overall, the 2022s have performed very well, much better than expected. The wine has been blended and clarified, and is now in tank awaiting bottling. Bottling is scheduled for June (or late May). They are expecting around 89,000 bottles, a little less because the young vines have suffered more from the heat. 2025-2032
