The 2019 Flor de Pingus is marginally riper than the PSI and Pingus from the same vintage but still shows the freshness and finesse the cask sample showed a little over one year ago. The wine has more concentration than the 2018, and it has absorbed the oak quite well. They use maybe 20% new barrels for the élevage here. It has abundant, fine-grained tannins. It's a powerful vintage of flor, reflecting the solar vintage, but still keeping the poise, harvesting early and fermenting at low temperature. 108,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2021.
A sleek, finely meshed red that's graceful overall but compact, with notes of baked black raspberry, kirsch, brambly herbs, violet and mandarin orange peel slowly unfolding on the palate. This has an underlying streak of minerally iron, smoke and sinewy tannins that emerge on the spiced finish. Drink now through 2029.
