Crushed & Cured
Bodegas Emilio Moro, Finca Resalso, DO Ribera del Duero, Spain, 2022
Deep cherry red in colour with a violet rim, the bouquet is intense and dominated by the ripe black fruits typical of Tempranillo. Subtle floral notes and milky nuances appear in the glass, adding complexity and sweetness to the wine. In the mouth it is silky and full-bodied. Ripe tannin give a pleasant and creamy feel to the palate with a lovely finish and long aftertaste.
The wine macerates with its own skins for 12 days, later the malolactic fermentation is made for 30 days in stainless steel. Finally, it is aged in 3 year old French oaks barrels.
Finca Resalso is the name of an historic vineyard that was planted in 1932, the year Emilio Moro was born. This is the name given to the wine made from grapes from their younger vines grown in a mixture of clay, stony and chalky soils.
