Dominio de Pingus Flor de Pingus 2022

94 points Robert Parker
94-95 point. The nose of the 2022 Flor de Pingus has a peachy note (peche de vigne!). It's perfumed, elegant, more fruit-driven, tender, delicate and ripe without excess (but possibly the ripest of the 2022s, perhaps the influence of the younger vines). It has a tender palate with glossy tannins and a rounder mouthfeel. The finish is dry, even a little austere, with fine chalkiness. In general, the 2022s showed quite well, much better than expected. The wine was blended and clarified and is in tank waiting to be bottled.

Flor accounts for 90% of the production of Pingus and uses Tinto Fino grapes from 40 hectares of vineyards with an average age of 25 years in the village of La Horra. Commendably refined and floral in a very hot vintage, partly thanks to early picking, this is youthful, appealing and alluring, with nice tension and freshness, deftly integrated 20% new oak and flavours of plum, pomegranate and red cherry.
