2023 Dominio de Pingus 'Flor de Pingus' Ribera del Duero, Spain Bodega Maranones iris and delicate earthy tonesPeter Sisseck admits that he was worried about the 2023 vintage in La Horra, but is very happy with the finished wine. Combining grapes from five parcels Barroso, El Castillo, El Pino, Fuentenarro and Fuentes totalling 49 hectares, Flor is what he calls "our village wine", showing impressive finesse in a hot growing season, succulent tannins, flavours of blackberry, red cherry and ginger spice and a violet top note.
