Dominio de Pingus - BIO: Ribera del Duero's Icon

Hailing from the prestigious Ribera del Duero, the Dominio de Pingus - BIO is a benchmark for Spanish fine wine. Created by Peter Sisseck, this biodynamically farmed, low-production Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) is globally recognised as a 'cult wine' and a serious investment asset. It perfectly marries the raw, brooding power of old Spanish vines with a refined, almost Médoc-like structure and purity.

Tasting Notes (Reference Vintage)

• Colour: A deep, inky purple.
• Nose: Highly complex, offering a powerful blend of intense dark berries, plum, liquorice, cedar, and smoky mineral notes. Hints of violet and tea unfurl with air.
• Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated. It possesses a remarkable velvety texture, driven by super-fine tannins. The wine is both muscular and graceful, showcasing a brilliant balance of rich fruit and fresh acidity.
• Finish: Long, elegant, and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of pure Tinto Fino fruit and spice.
