Psi 2020 Magnum
Descripción
El tinto más accesible de la bodega del genio danés Peter Sisseck es también uno de los valores seguros de Ribera del Duero. Pese a la calidez de 2020, esta cosecha hace gala de una muy buena frescura, además de un elegante y atractivo perfil floral en nariz y gran facilidad de trago. Todo un espectáculo. Aquí en formato de 1,5 litros.

Opinión de los críticos
In 2020, he reached the target he set for himself when PSI first started, to produce around 300,000 bottles (it's actually 350,000 bottles). The volume of the 2020 PSI is something that's important, as it has availability and affordability, which is necessary when based on quality, purchasing only grapes from old vines (they use 7,000 plots for this volume!). So, they also started purchasing some of those vineyards in 2022 (they think they need 200 hectares to keep the volume, so the aim is to own maybe half of it). Peter Sisseck remarked that we have to remember 2020 was a warm year, but with the high content of limestone in the soils, the wine has kept very good freshness. They harvested early, before the rain, and they also used some 5% to 10% Garnacha (they could use up to 25%, according to regulations) in the blend to lower the pH of the wine. Below 3.8, he thinks, the wines from the zone are very angular and hard if it's only Tempranillo, so Garnacha (which doesn't have as much tannins as Tempranillo) can help with that; but the difficulty is finding Garnacha grapes, so they are considering planting some Garnacha for the future. The bottled wine has all that the sample promised—clean and healthy aromas, floral and elegant, aromatic and with good freshness. The palate is medium-bodied, with elegant tannins, pleasant and easy to drink. 350,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2022.
"The bank was very happy," says Peter Sisseck of the higher yields of the 2020 vintage. "We'll have to see how they age." Volumes of this négociant blend of Tinto Fino and 10% Garnacha are now up to 320,000 bottles and it's one of the best yet. Savoury, herbal and subtly reduced, with grippy tannins, racy underlying acidity, lots of bramble and red cherry fruit and just a hint of oak. 2024-30.
Dried lemon rind and blueberries with sliced mushrooms on the nose. Bark too. Medium to full-bodied with firm tannins that are rather minerally and salty in nature. Crushed stone and powerful in the texture. A little rustic but real. Old vine character. Drink or hold.
