Peter Sisseck discusses winemaking philosophy and old vines
Danish enologist Peter Sisseck discusses his winemaking philosophy and his work in Spain. Having lived in Spain since the early 1990s, Sisseck is the creator of Dominio de Pingus in the Ribera region and also operates Bodegas y Viñedos Balbaina in Jerez.
Sisseck emphasizes a model of adding value directly to the vineyard, a practice he notes is more common in regions like Burgundy than in traditional Spanish models. He advocates for the use of old vines, noting that vines surviving over 100 years are a strong indicator of quality. Furthermore, he highlights that old vines are better equipped to handle climate change due to their deep root systems, which provide greater resistance to heat and drought.
