Dominio de Pingus
PSI Ribera del Duero Tempranillo
Popped and poured; enjoyed over two days. Best on Day 2 after it brightened up. The 2008 pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of blackberry compote, coffee, Werther’s Chocolate, tobacco leaf, leather, teriyaki, demi-glace, and dry earth. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. The finish is long and slightly savory. This is delicious and has to be one of the great values in Ribera del Duero. Drink now through 2032+.

Apr 28th, 2024 A nose of blackberry bramble
Medium bodied - blackberry, touched by eucalyptus, a silky mouthfeel, with those seeds becoming the tannins, firm, yet giving.
A solid wine for the price!

Mar 25th, 2021Wow what a good wine, just had to try again!! A blend of 86% Tinta del País/Tempranillo (from old vineyards), 12% Garnacha and 2% other grapes, including whites. Medium Ruby with aromas of ripe fresh fruits, herb and complex spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and strawberry with vanilla oak and cacao. Good balance, fine elegant tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and earthy character. Very nice! I grabbed a few bottles to see how this ages, check back!!
