Pingus Vintage:2014 the 2012 Pichon Lalande is

the 2012 Pichon Lalande is a wine of pure and total seduction

perhaps just leaning to the powerful side of Swartland Syrah

then racked into French oak for the malolactic fermentation

displaying raspberry and redcurrant aromas

The palate widens as it opens in the glass

Pingus Vintage:2014 the 2012 Pichon Lalande isI was really looking forward to the bottled version of the 2018 Pingus after a great showing of the cask sample last year. Part of the wine matured in 20,000 liter oak casks, so it's not all barrique. This is the first time they used the vats, and based on the results, Sisseck thinks in the future Pingus will be around 50% in oak vats. The Pingus vines were planted in 1929 in two different sectors of the village of La Horra, Barroso and San Cristobal
