Hacienda Monasterio

About Hacienda Monasterio
Peter Sisseck is a legendary name in Ribera del Duero. The imperious driving force behind Dominio de Pingus, he has several winemaking initiatives across the globe which has earned him a feverish cult following in fine wine circles.
One of those projects sought-after by many is Hacienda Monasterio. Like Dominio de Pingus a winery from Ribera del Duero, it is located close to the villages of Pesquera de Valbuena covering 70 ha of vines. Residing in the village, Peter Sisseck has been the consultant winemaker here since 1990. Naturally, it is no surprise that their wines are of the highest standing in the region.
Hacienda Monasterio Ribera del Duero Reserva is made up of mostly Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) plus around 20% of Cabernet Sauvignon. Unlike the regular cuvée, the grapes were selected from limestone-rich soil - a terroir which typically adds freshness to the wine. After picking only the best grapes, this wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts, then matured in French barriques for 20 months before release.
