Tasting Notes

98
Tasting from 10.03.2006

Bright, deep dark ruby, deep colour in the core, purple reflections, broad watery rim. Delicate cookie on the nose, subtle mocha, fine roasted aromas. Enormous fruit sweetness on the palate, great complexity, silky, full-bodied tannins, enormous length, chocolaty texture, dark berry fruit and some roasted aromas that linger for a very long time. An epoch-making achievement that pushes the Tempranillo variety to its limits. The best Pingus that Peter Sisseck has produced to date, and this wine will get even better.
