Flor de Pingus 2024

Flor de Pingus 2024 is a prestigious red wine produced by Dominio de Pingus, the renowned winery founded by Danish winemaker Peter Sisseck in the D.O. Ribera del Duero. Sourced from vineyards located in La Horra, Burgos, this wine reflects its distinctive terroir and the philosophy of one of Spain's most highly regarded wineries. Made primarily from Tempranillo with a small proportion of Garnacha (approximately 5%), it stands out for its concentration, depth and remarkable balance between power and elegance.

The 2024 vintage was marked by a severe frost that significantly affected the winery's vineyards. Despite efforts to protect the vines using candles, only approximately half of its estate vineyards could be saved. This resulted in two distinct ripening patterns: grapes from frost-affected areas ripened more rapidly, requiring an earlier harvest to prevent excessively high alcohol levels. The careful selection and separate vinification of the different batches helped preserve the wine's precision and balance.

The vinification of Flor de Pingus 2024 takes place with indigenous yeasts in 4,000-litre stainless steel tanks, respecting the natural expression of the fruit. The wine is subsequently aged for 14 to 15 months in oak barrels and 2,000-litre oak foudres, with approximately 10% new oak distributed across the different batches. This meticulous winemaking process encourages tannin integration and adds complexity without overshadowing the character of the vineyard.

Production of this vintage was particularly limited, with approximately 90,000 bottles, fewer than in previous years. Bottled in May 2026, Flor de Pingus 2024 displays a more restrained and serious expression than the 2023 vintage, with greater structure, remarkable harmony and excellent potential for further development in the bottle.

An excellent accompaniment to red meats, roast lamb, beef tenderloin, game dishes, traditional stews and aged cheeses. Its structure and concentration also make it an ideal choice for richly flavoured dishes.

Best served between 16 and 18°C. Its structure and balance give it excellent ageing potential, allowing the wine to develop greater complexity over time.
