The wine
What does this wine taste like?
The wine has a soft straw-yellow colour and a very fresh nose, combining fragrant notes of ripe white and yellow fruit and dried flowers with the intense mineral character commonly found in great Godello wines from Bierzo. Extremely elegant in the mouth, it is pleasant to drink and wonderfully balanced thanks to the perfect contrast between acidity and strength. It is a somewhat more mature wine than its 'big brother', La Revelía, but it is also an agile wine with a cautious sensation of alcoholic strength whose perfectly integrated wood only appears in the background. It is smooth and flavoursome in the mouth, salty and lively, with elegant floral and spicy aromas.

The winery
Emilio Moro
Bodegas Emilio Moro has the perfect platform for producing great wines: family tradition (José and Javier Moro are the third generation of vine growers), a strategic site (in the heart of the Ribera del Duero), pure clones of the indigenous grape, excellent quality soils (clay, chalk and gravel) and an ideal orientation. The winery currently owns some 200 hectares of vineyards, planted and grafted with an excellent Tempranillo clone recouped from their oldest vineyards. Some...
