Dominio de Pingus is a Spanish winery located in Quintanilla de Onésimo in Valladolid province with vineyards in La Horra area of the Ribera del Duero region. The estate's flagship wine, Pingus, is considered a "cult wine", sold at extremely high prices while remaining very inaccessible,[1][2] and commands an average price of $811 per bottle.[3]
The winery also produces a second wine, Flor de Pingus, and a special cuvée, Ribera del Duero "Amelia". Recently, Dominio de Pingus has founded a joint project with local grape producers to make an old vine tempranillo called "PSI".
Dominio de Pingus was established in 1995 by Danish oenologist Peter Sisseck, also manager of the Pesquera de Duero estate Hacienda Monasterio.[4] On the estate's winemaking philosophies, Sisseck has stated, "The vines in my plots are very old. They have never been fertilised nor treated with pesticides and all grow following the traditional en vaso system. They are perfect."[4]
About the first 1995 vintage of Pingus, Robert Parker declared, "One of the greatest and most exciting wines I have ever tasted".[5] With a very limited first vintage production, only 325 cases were made with prices initially set at US$200 per bottle, it became yet more scarce when in November 1997 the ship transporting a U.S. bound shipment of 75 cases disappeared somewhere off the Azores in the North Atlantic Ocean.[6] The shipwreck resulted in a dramatic reaction in the US market, with prices soon rising to $495 per bottle.[5][6]
At the Ronda WineCreator conference of April 2008, Sisseck was angered by suggestions by Decanter editor Guy Woodward that some winemakers make wines to suit the palates of certain critics. In response he called Woodward's remarks arrogant for implying winemakers do not have their own opinions, adding, "I don't even think it is possible to do this."[7]
In 2007 it was announced that the Spanish government had approved plans to expand highway roads through the vineyards of Dominio de Pingus and other wineries, which was met with strong opposition by Sisseck who called it a "vengeful measure".[8]
Planted with very old vines of Tinto Fino, i.e. Tempranillo, the vineyards are 2.5 hectares (6.2 acres) in Barrosso with vines exceeding 65 years and 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres) in San Cristobal with vines older than 70 years, and the unusually low average yield of 12 hL per hectare. Since 2000, the viticulture has been biodynamic. Of the annual production of Pingus there is typically less than 500 cases, though in poor vintages no Pingus is made.
The production of the second wine Flor de Pingus, also 100% Tempranillo, is made with fruit from rented vineyards in the La Horra zone, with vines older than 35 years. Since the 2005 vintage, the viticulture has been biodynamic. The annual production is on average 4,000 cases.
Additionally there has been the single barrel cuvée, Ribera del Duero "Amelia", made from a vineyard parcel of 100+ year old vines with an average yield of 10 hL per hectare, with biodynamic viticulture since its initial 2003 vintage. The 2005 vintage had a production of 25 cases.
"PSI" is a joint project based on fruit produced by local grape growers from old tempranillo vines. The goal is to help grape producers and save old vines. Project was founded in 2006, first vintage was 2007. Grape growers are encouraged to employ biodynamic or organic vineyard management practices. The wine is made by Peter Sisseck and Pablo Rubio and sold under producer name Bodegas y Viñedos Alnardo. Vinification takes place in large concrete vats and aging in concrete and wooden tanks and oak barrels. Production of PSI 2009 was 9,600 cases, PSI 2010 was 16,600 cases.
新鞋子还没有缝好以前，
先别急忙着把旧鞋子脱，
旧鞋子还没有穿破以前，
先别急忙着把新鞋穿上，
老先生老太太都这么说呀，
从前的生活就是这么过，
老先生老太太都这么说呀，
现在的孩子们不会过生活。
旧鞋子穿过了留它干嘛，
还不如光着脚凉快得多，
新鞋子缝好了不穿为何，
等等等过两年又穿不下，
小弟弟小妹妹都这么说呀，
青春的好年华不能错过，
小弟弟小妹妹都这么说呀，
老先生老太太他们太啰嗦。
旧鞋子还不是新鞋穿破，
新鞋子也会有穿旧的时候。
老先生老太太也这么说呀
青春的好年华也不能错过，
小弟弟小妹妹也这么说呀，
新鞋子旧鞋子都是过生活。
不知道在那天边可会有尽头 只知道逝去光阴不会再回头 每一串泪水伴每一个梦想 不知不觉全溜走
不经意地在这圈中转到这年头 只感到在这圈中经过顺逆流 每颗冷酷眼光 到每声友善笑声 默然一一尝透
几多艰苦当天我默默接受 几多辛酸也未放手 故意挑剔今天我不在乎 只跟心中意愿去走
不相信未作牺牲就实现可以拥有 只相信始靠双手找到我要求 每一串汗水 换每一个成就 从来得失我睇透

心里从不会强求
这世界有那么多人
人群里 敞着一扇门
我迷朦的眼睛里长存
初见你蓝色清晨
这世界有那么多人
多幸运 我有个我们
这悠长命运中的晨昏
常让我 望远方出神
灰树叶飘转在池塘
看飞机轰的一声去远乡
光阴的长廊 脚步声叫嚷
灯一亮 无人的空荡
晚风中闪过 几帧从前啊
飞驰中旋转 已不见了吗
远光中走来 你一身晴朗
身旁那么多人 可世界不声 不响
这世界有那么多人
多幸运 我有个我们
这悠长命运中的晨昏
常让我 望远方出神
灰树叶飘转在池塘
看飞机轰的一声去远乡
光阴的长廊 脚步声叫嚷
灯一亮 无人的空荡
晚风中闪过 几帧从前啊
飞驰中旋转 已不见了吗
远光中走来 你一身晴朗
身旁那么多人 可世界不声 不响
笑声中浮过 几张旧模样
留在梦田里 永远不散场
暖光中醒来 好多话要讲
世界那么多人 可是它不声 不响
这世界有那么个人
活在我 飞扬的青春
在泪水里浸湿过的长吻
常让我 想啊想出神
让我们爬上云端
更接近那蓝的天
最高的山峰在眼前
地上的弯弯流水
好像一条银项链
看一看山脚下
又像一座小花园
我们爬的高
我们看的远
把欢乐和美妙的
歌声散播在山水间
小燕子飞在身边
它不停地在呢喃
欢迎我来到大自然
你看那阳光灿烂
它晒红了我的脸
我们在高山上
渡过快乐的一天
我们爬的高
我们看的远
把欢乐和美妙的
歌声散播在山水间
莫说青山多障碍
风也急风也劲
白云过山峰也可传情
莫说水中多变幻
水也清水也静
柔情似水爱共永
未怕罡风吹散了热爱
万水千山总是情
聚散也有天注定
不怨天不怨命
但求有山水共作证
莫说青山多障碍
风也急风也劲
白云过山峰也可传情
莫说水中多变幻
水也清水也静
柔情似水爱共永
未怕罡风吹散了热爱
万水千山总是情
聚散也有天注定
不怨天不怨命
但求有山水共作证
但求有山水共作证
