-發掘Ribera del Duero的古老靈魂-
Ψ PSI, Dominio de Pingus
出生於丹麥而在波爾多與釀酒結緣的Peter Sisseck,最後落腳在西班牙。他在Ribera del Duero產區,慧眼看出許多老藤葡萄園的發展潛力,在1995年釀出了3900瓶以他孩童時的小名-”Pingus”命名的紅酒,頂尖的品質,震驚了酒評天王Robert Parker,立即在他該年八月出版的Wine Advocate雜誌中給於(96-100分)的接近完美之評價,並盛讚道:『這是我生命中喝到過最好的紅酒之一!』。在接下來的每一個年份都持續釀造出頂尖水準的Pingus,獲得更多國際專業媒體與酒迷的肯定與喝采,許多年份在競相收藏的喊價之下,每瓶售價突破1,000美金甚至2,000美金,成為當今是世上最名貴的佳釀之一,也替西班牙葡萄酒在全球酒壇的歷史中寫下輝煌且傳奇的一頁!
Peter Sisseck的Dominio de Pingus酒莊在獲致偉大的成就之後,他也不斷在思考如何回饋與協助所在的這一片西班牙的古老產區,持續的拜訪與分享他的經驗給當地的果農,從2006年開始,Peter Sisseck進一步與Alonso y Yerro酒莊的前釀酒師Pablo Rubio一起示範性的展開以”發掘Ribera del Duero的古老靈魂”為主旨的長遠計畫。在這個計畫中,他們一起協助產區內果農重新認識優質的老藤葡萄園,導入有機(organic)及生物動力法(biodynamic)來種植管理這些莊園,以發揮其原本就存在無窮的潛力,這個計畫在2007年開花結果,最新力作就是這瓶以希臘文第23個字母所名的Ψ PSI紅酒,主要採收來自產區內不同的老藤葡萄園,以無比的企圖心發展出當地原生品種Tinta del Pais (即Tempranillo)的頂級風味。
Ψ PSI的計畫從一開始的困難重重到後來逐漸獲得認同,有越來越多的果農們樂意加入這個計畫。在共同的願景之下,他們遵循一同討論出來對大地最友善的方式來種植葡萄園,並在Peter Sisseck和Pablo Rubio精湛的釀酒技藝與嚴格的品質管制下,釀造這一款集眾人心志而成的美味佳釀,也由於大家的團結合作,隨著執行時間的加長,葡萄逐年有了更佳的品質,這也完全反應在酒質上,一個年份比一個年份更好。
在2014這個傑出的年份中,Peter Sisseck當然又釀出令人驚嘆的超高品質,Pingus 2014再度獲得Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate的100分完美評價來肯定其無懈可擊的品質和無人可及的地位!而這款平易近人的PSI 2014,當然也是品質非凡,再度獲得RP92分和JS94分的史上最高評價!

JS: Fresh and classy nose of cherries, currants and raspberries with hints of pepper. Full body, beautiful and fine-grained tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Delivers the Pingus magic! Drink now or hold.
RP: The 2014 PSI is a blend of Tempranillo with 10% Garnacha and perhaps 1% of other grapes found interplanted with the other varieties in the old vineyards, mostly white Albillo. The idea here is to protect the old vineyards that are disappearing from Ribera del Duero and provide some added value to the grapes coming from them. They have identified a grand total of only 56 hectares of Garnacha in Ribera del Duero, and they have rented 20 of those to save them, because they were set to be uprooted. It has great freshness and energy, with an herbal/leafy touch in the nose that also adds complexity. It's a wine that seems to improve from vintage to vintage, and I believe the jump will be noticeable when they produce it in their own winery from the 2015 vintage onward. The Garnacha always has a lower pH than the Tempranillo, and helps to provide an extra spark of freshness. This is an approachable Ribera, but keeping the character of yesteryear. This is really what Ribera del Duero used to be: all old vineyards and no new oak whatsoever. Kudos to that!
PSI 2013: JS93,RP91;PSI 2012: JS94,RP92(同年份Pingus 2012為RP100);PSI 2011: RP91
