97 points,"Blackberries, black cherries and hot crushed stones with cement and black liquorice. Subtle yet complex aromas. Medium to full body and an exquisite texture, with intense tannins and a long, flavourful finish. The verve and mouthfeel is luxurious and captivating. This is very structured."- James Suckling 94 points,"The 2019 Flor de Pingus is marginally riper than the PSI and Pingus from the same vintage but still shows the freshness and finesse the cask sample showed a little over one year ago. The wine has more concentration than the 2018, and it has absorbed the oak quite well. They use maybe 20% new barrels for theélevage here. It has abundant, fine-grained tannins. It's a powerful vintage of Flor, reflecting the solar vintage, but still keeping the poise, harvesting early and fermenting at low temperature."- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Flor de Pingus is the second wine from the genius Peter Sisseck, creator of the iconic Pingus. It hails from prime biodynamic Tempranillo plots in La Horra, Ribera del Duero, and offers an exquisite snapshot into the world of Pingus. It feels youthfully energetic, immensely polished and riper than Pingus; expect lots of concentrated dark fruit, plum, black cherry and dark chocolate, laced with liquorice, vanilla, coffee bean, coconutty oak and antique cedar. As always, it's a masterful piece of winemaking. Danish winemaker Peter Sisseck's Pingus revolutionised Spanish wine, placing it right up there alongside the Super Tuscans and Bordeaux's First Growths. Before it, Ribera del Duero was known for little more than mass-produced reds, Vega Sicilia being the only notable exception. But Pingus changed all of that, shooting to fame in 1995 when Robert Parker described the Grand Vin as probably"the greatest young red wine I have ever tasted from Spain."A huge proportion of the 325 cases of that vintage were lost when a ship carrying them to the US sank near the Azores. This rocketed the demand for what remained into the stratosphere, and the rest - as they say - is history. The cult Pingus is seen by many as the pinnacle of what can be achieved with Tempranillo.£12 per 100.00ml
