Pingus--Vintage 1996
Ribero del Duero
In two six-bottle original wooden cases
"Only 350 cases (made) in 1996. Made from 60+ year old Tempranillo vines planted in the heart of Ribera del Duero, these wines are produced from yields of under 1/2 ton of fruit per acre, or about 1.1 pounds of fruit per vine. Malolactic fermentation is done in new oak, and the wine is then aged in 100 new oak casks, with the white wine technique of batonage (lees stirring) utilized. Batonage is rarely used for red wine." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 114, 10/31/97
