The estate

Founded in 1995 by Danish oenologist Peter Sisseck, Dominio de Pingus has established itself as a leading reference in Ribera del Duero in Castille-León. The estate cultivates its pre-phylloxera vines according to biodynamic principles on an exceptional clay-limestone terroir located between 800 and 950 meters above sea level. From its very first vintage, this Spanish estate earned worldwide recognition. Peter Sisseck favors an ultra-selective, artisanal approach, producing wines in limited quantities where quality takes precedence over quantity.

The vineyard

PSI comes from 630 different plots located within the Ribera del Duero appellation. The very old vines are planted on clay-limestone soils at an altitude between 850 and 950 meters. These conditions allow Tempranillo and Grenache to express themselves with finesse and freshness.

Vinification and aging
