Emilio Moro Vendimia Seleccionada

The Red Wine Emilio Moro Vendimia Seleccionada from Bodegas Emilio Moro presents us with this red wine from the D.O. Ribera del Duero, crafted from 100% Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) grape varieties. Bodegas Emilio Moro aims to commemorate and honor its history and tradition through this wine, made from grapes sourced from the emblematic Camino Viejo vineyard plot. The vineyard from which the grapes used to craft this wine are sourced is located in Pesquera de Duero, in the province of Valladolid, and they grow on clay-type soils. Vendimia Seleccionada is fermented at controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks.

Malolactic fermentation takes place for 30 days in the same tanks. Finally, the wine is aged for 12 months in American and French oak barrels, combining the use of new oak and second-year oak.

Recommended serving temperature: Between 16 and 18ºC. Bodegas Emilio Moro The history of the Moro family has been written since 1932 as a three-generation project rooted in Ribera del Duero and dedicated to discovering the characteristics of their terroir to transmit them in wines with personality. Emilio Moro was born in 1932 in Pesquera de Duero, one of Spain’s most coveted wine regions. As a child he treaded grapes in his village’s wine presses and at 14 years old he sold wine jugs alongside his father in the area. In 1987 Emilio and his sons, José and Javier, decided to craft and market their own wines, betting on vines of native Tempranillo clones. Currently Bodegas Emilio Moro owns 200 hectares of vineyards, most of which are located in the surroundings of Pesquera de Duero, the birthplace of the winery’s founder, in the heart of Ribera del Duero.
