Tim Atkin - Dominio de Pingus Flor de Pingus Cosecha 2020 - 98/100 - (14.5%) - 2025-35
A brilliant wine that deserves its global reputation, Pingus uses grapes from two plots in La Horra - Barroso (three hectares) and San Cristóbal (one hectare) – and shows no sign of the higher yields of the 2020  intage. Fermented with 20% whole bunches and entirely aged in older wood, it's a floral, refined, gracefully structured Tinto Fino showing svelte tannins, mint, raspberry and black cherry fruit, racy acidity and subtle wood. "It's not about fireworks," says Peter Sisseck. Maybe. But it’s certainly about balance, beauty and finesse.

The Wine Advocate -  31th Jan 2023 - Luis Gutiérrez - Dominio de Pingus • Flor de Pingus 2020 - 94+/100 - $95 - 2024-2030 
There is around 20% new oak in the 2020 Flor de Pingus, and because it has a little younger vines (there was a land-consolidation project in La Horra in 2006!), there'll be some Garnacha starting in 2021 and maybe some oak vats for aging too. All this shows the direction, where he found structure and volume in the palate, with textured tannins. It's harmonious and elegant, aromatic and floral, perfumed and showy, with contained ripeness and around 14% alcohol. The palate is quite powerful, with abundant but fine tannins. 110,000 bottles were filled in July 2022.

James Suckling - Thursday, December 05th, 2023 - Flor de Pingus 2020 - 94/100
5 Dec, 2022 – Aromas of perfumes and violets with blueberries follow through to a medium body with very fine tannins that run the length of the wine and show muscle and length. Linear and toned. Give this time to open and show you more. Try after 2026.
