A modern, spicy and fruity tempranillo with nutmeg and plenty of sweet spices, black pepper and pine cones. Tight and juicy on the palate with a full body and compact tannins. Flavorful, juicy and long. Shows a bit more drinkability than its peers. Drink or hold.

Estate

Bodegas Emilio Moro is one of the oldest leading quality producers in Ribera del Duero. For four generations the Emilio Moro family has carefully farmed their 500 acres of estate vineyards located between 2,400 to 3,000 feet of elevation. The estates legendary Finca Resalso vineyard was planted the year Emilio Moro was born in 1932. The vineyards deep, cool soil is home to some of the winery’s oldest Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) bush vines and is the birthplace of their great single-estate wine Malleolus de Valderramiro. With excellent ripening conditions, these special plots provide tannic wines with a marked acidity and are ideal for ageing.
