The story of Bodegas Emilio Moro goes back four generations. The founder, Emilio Moro, was born in 1891 in Pesquera de Duero, a town in the province of Valladolid which also saw the birth of his son Emilio in 1932. Hard work at the vines built their passion, vintage after vintage on the banks of the River Douro. Emilio Moro instilled all his love for wine in his son, who, in turn, passed it on to the third and fourth generations of the family, consolidating a company which has become a leader of Spanish winemaking.
In 1988, José Moro Espinosa invested the family’s entire savings into winery equipment and Bodegas Emilio Moro was born. The bodega joined the D.O. Ribera del Duero in 1989 and quickly established itself as one of the region’s leading producers of top quality wines. The winery is located at the top of a bend in the Duero River in the town of Pesquera del Duero, just to the Northwest of Peñafiel.
The youngest example of tempranillo they produce, expresses itself with marked primary aromas, mulberry, licorice and black forest fruits. A tasty and appetizing ensemble which, on the palate, shows its vocation as an expressive and intense wine but with a well-developed structure that makes it pleasant to drink.
Absolutely love Yalumba Viognier The Virilgus that we were introduced to by OWS Wine.
Bryan at OWS introduced us to this wine we had never had before. Knowing that I prefer dry whites, Bryan thought I would like it. He was wrong, I love it! We initially bought six bottles and came back for a case! No sweet after taste I find common in Viogniers.
