Description
A rich and fruity Ribera del Duero wine
The estate
Located north of Madrid in the province of Castilla y Léon, not far from the prestigious Vega Sicilia estate, Dominio de Pingus is one of the big names in Spain.
Dominio de Pingus was founded in 1995 by Danish œnologist Peter Sisseck, who foresaw the extraordinary potential of the Ribera del Duero region. Led by his ambition to produce a great wine that reflected its terroir, this well-known œnologist made a meticulous selection of old tinto fino vines – the local name for the tempranillo grape variety – to raise Dominio de Pingus to the top ranks of the most famous wine estates in the world.
Pingus incorporates the excellence of the Ribera del Duero through its wonderful, inimitable range which combines powerfulness, finesse and complexity.
The vineyard
The Dominio de Pingus vineyard is worked in a traditional way respecting the short vine system "en vaso." The exclusive production at Dominio de Pingus, with very small yields – ranging from 20 hl/ha to just 9 hl/ha – makes it one of the most sought-after wines on earth.
The wine
PSI is a Ribera del Duero wine that comes from a selection of more than 600 plots of old vines, planted at an altitude of between 850 and 950 metres on clay-limestone soils.
Developed with all the talent and know-how by the great Danish œnologist Peter Sisseck, following ancestral footprints, PSI combines powerfulness and elegance in an accessible style.
