Dominio de Pingus PSI 2023

The Wine Advocate
RP 94
Reviewed by: Luis Gutiérrez

Tasted shortly before bottling, so a sample of the final blend, the 2023 PSI is juicy, ripe and approachable. It's a little showier and more intense, despite similar alcohol to the bottled 2022 (perhaps slightly higher, but under 14%), and seems a little riper, with notes of peach and some decaying flowers. It has abundant tannins and seems to need a little more time in bottle. That's usually the case with PSI: the tannins need time. They resolve relatively quickly, but it still requires a bit of patience. It was due to be bottled in May 2025.

Tim Atkin:

Peter Sisseck sources this large blend, Tempranillo with 10% Garnacha, from 700 plots, mostly in the eastern part of the appellation, working with 200 growers, two co-ops and 90 hectares of his own vines. Fresh, vibrant and full of energy, the focus here is on fruit intensity and minerality rather than oak, with notes of mountain herbs, flavours of raspberry, plum and redcurrant, and fine, elegant tannins. 2026–32.
