Emilio Moro "MALLEOLUS" Ribera Del Duero
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Spain's Ribera del Duero remains one of the best go-to regions for bold, modern reds, and the Emilio Moro estate's 2020 "Malleolus" nails that style in impressive fashion ! Emilio Moro is one of the big names in the region, having helped form this quiet interior Spanish region into a powerhouse on the international stage. These are sleek, modern expressions of the regional type of Tempranillo they call Tinto Fino, with its small clusters of compact berries capable of producing powerful wines, framed and enlivened by velvet, cheek-coating textures and juicy acidity. Combined with the variety's plush fruit character that's countered by a savory, mineral edge, it's easy to see why it wins over wine drinkers from around the world! Bodega Emilio Moro has been making wines here for three generations, before the Ribera del Duero designation existed. The Malleolus represents their historic bottling, sourced from their older vines, or majuelos, and aged in a large proportion of new French oak for a creamy, toasted vanilla accent and enhanced softness in the mouth. You can enjoy this on its own, or pair it with rich braised meat dishes. Wine Enthusiast 97 Points - "Dark ruby violet-colored in the glass, this wine has enticing aromas of orange peel, milk chocolate and black raspberry. Plush tannins and bright acidity wake up your mouth to flavors of ripe cherry, cranberry, anise frond and dried lavender." |
