I was really looking forward to the bottled version of the 2018 Pingus after a great showing of the cask sample last year. Part of the wine matured in 20,000-liter oak casks, so it's not all barrique. This is the first time they used the vats, and based on the results, Sisseck thinks in the future Pingus will be around 50% in oak vats. The Pingus vines were planted in 1929 in two different sectors of the village of La Horra, Barroso and San Cristobal and contain some 2% other varieties. The vineyards are certified organic and biodynamic and are manicured like few vineyards in Spain. The wine is subtle and harmonious, elegant and insinuating, with all the components in very good balance. This is precise and pure; Sisseck is thorough and meticulous, and the wine shows that precision. This follows the line of the 2016, showing very well even if it was bottled only one month before I tasted it. 9,300 bottles were filled in August 2020.

Tempranillo

Tempranillo er rygraden i Spaniens største og mest ikoniske rødvine, især fra Rioja og Ribera del Duero. Navnet kommer fra det spanske temprano – “tidligt” – fordi druen modner tidligere end de fleste andre spanske sorter.

Druen er kendetegnet ved tykt skind, dyb farve og moderat til høj tannin, hvilket giver vine med alt fra frisk rød frugt til dybere noter af blomme, læder, chokolade og tobak – afhængigt af klima og fadlagring. I Rioja og Ribera producerer den elegante, komplekse og ofte langtidsholdbare vine, hvor Tempranillo både kan være frisk, ren og frugtdrevet eller dyb, fadpræget og struktureret.

Tempranillo har en særlig evne til at integrere fad, især amerikansk eg, der tilfører klassiske noter af vanilje, kokos og dild. Den bruges også i blends, hvor den typisk balancerer Garnachas blødhed og Mazuelo/Carignans syre og farve.

Druens stilistiske spændvidde – fra friske Joven-vine til komplekse Gran Reservas – gør Tempranillo til en af vinverdenens mest alsidige og elskede rødvinsdruer.
