Flor de Pingus 2006 Pingus

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (94)

The 2006 Flor de Pingus spent 14 months in new French oak. Deep purple in color, it gives up a superb bouquet of toasty oak, spice box, mineral, incense, black cherry, and blackberry. Youthful, full-bodied, intense, and powerful on the palate, it retains an elegant personality despite its size. Splendidly balanced, it will evolve for 4-6 years and deliver prime drinking from 2013 to 2026. It is a superb value in great wine considering that the price of Pingus Junior is one-tenth that of Pingus.

This austere red shows coffee, tobacco and meat notes under firm tannins that close down the finish now. There's a core of plum that may blossom with time.
