平古斯 -(西班牙酒中黑馬的黑馬、天王中的天王)- 請洽詢

Pingus 號稱西班牙最昂貴的葡萄酒~每瓶市價超過NT$35,000~價格直逼精典年份"法國波爾多五大".是西班牙酒中黑馬的黑馬、天王中的天王。Dominio de Pingus酒莊
丹麥籍的釀酒師Peter Sisseck ，原本跟隨叔父在波爾多Graves區釀造白酒，之後因為紅酒需求回溫所以才更換跑道，輾轉到了西班牙的Pesquera del Duero 區，為Hacienda Monasterio 酒莊擔任釀酒顧問。

在幫這間酒莊釀酒之餘，他在La Horra 看到一個大約5公頃種滿老藤的葡萄園，就把這個葡萄園買下，成立自己的酒莊 Dominio de Pingus。沒想到第一個年份1995年就一砲而紅！

Robert Parker說Pingus是"One of the greatest and most exciting wines I have ever tasted."

當時這款酒在波爾多預售市場受到許多買家的讚賞，並獲得酒評家Robert Parker 的極高評分，加上產量只有325箱，其中75箱美國配額因海難而消失，價格因此翻漲數倍，成為所謂的西班牙「車庫酒莊 (Garagiste)」。

目前Pingus酒每瓶上市都近千元美金，比波爾多老牌的一級頂級酒還貴上一倍以上。Pingus果然是西班牙酒中黑馬的黑馬、天王中的天王。

目前酒莊生產3款酒，二軍酒Flor de Pingus (產量約60,000瓶)、Pingus (約8,500瓶) 及用百年老藤葡萄所釀造出來的Amelia (約300瓶)。

The opaque ruby/purple-colored, firmly-structured 2001 Pingus is more closed and backward than the extravagantly rich, flamboyant 2000. It offers great fruit on the attack along with huge body, and notes of grilled meats intermixed with Provencal herbs, pepper, spice box, cigar smoke, and copious quantities of barbecue smoke-infused blackberry and cassis flavors. The finish lasts for nearly a minute. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2028.

Wine Advocate #159 Jun 2005	Robert Parker	(96-100)	Drink: 2005 - 2025	$850-$1125 (400)
A candidate for perfection, the profound 2003 Pingus possesses an awesome smoky, blackberry, and cassis-scented nose intermixed with hints of espresso roast, lead pencil shavings, cedar, and subtle new oak. Sensational concentration, a seamless integration of acidity, tannin, alcohol, and wood, and a blockbuster finish lasting nearly a minute result in one of the most profound wines ever made in Spain. It should age effortlessly for two decades or more.

The 2005 Pingus is the most powerful of this series (power being a major characteristic of the top 2005s in the DO). It offers up a perfume beginning to develop some complexity, terrific volume and richness on the palate, and a lengthy, pure finish. This is a great wine that should have a 40 year lifespan.

Wine Advocate #183 Jun 2009	Jay Miller	99	Drink: 2016 - 2030	$650-$1253 (750)
The flagship 2006 Pingus is a spectacular effort. A glass-staining saturated opaque purple, it delivers an other-worldly perfume of smoke, lavender, mineral, scorched earth, and an amalgam of kinky black fruits. Voluptuous on the palate in a measured way, it has superb balance, layered, complex flavors, ripe tannin that is entirely covered by the fruit, and a decade of aging potential. This monumental wine will evolve effortlessly for 10-15 years and offer prime drinking from 2016 to 2030+.

Wine Advocate #188 Apr 2010	Jay Miller	99	Drink: 2020 - 2047	$586-$800 (700)
Vintage conditions required a stricter selection for the flagship 2007 Pingus. The aromatics are more brooding but seriously multifaceted. Smoke, pencil lead, truffle, Asian spices, blackberry, and licorice notes are followed by a chewy, dense, rich, powerful wine with fully integrated oak, savory black fruits, ripe tannins, and a decade of aging potential. Drink it from 2020 to 2047, if not longer.

Wine Advocate #189 Jun 2010	Jay Miller	99	Drink: 2016 - 2033	$500-$824
The 2008 Pingus had just been bottled when I tasted it. Deep purple in color, it sports a splendid aromatic array of smoke, mineral, Asian spices, incense, lavender, and black cherry. On the palate it exhibits outstanding volume, intense fruit, power combined with elegance, and a long, smooth finish. It is a complete, virtually seamless wine that might one day achieve perfection. Give it 5-7 years of cellaring and drink it from 2016 to 2033.
