The Story
Variety: 100% Tempranillo
Each year, the best terrain on which we work to make Emilio Moro will be used to bottle Vendimia Seleccionada (Select Harvest), a wine made using grapes selected from the La Mira terrain.
Winemaking: Made using grapes selected from the La Mira terrain, which has a clayey soil and is situated at 900 m above sea level. Fermented at controlled temperature and aged in American- and French-oak barrels (50-50) for 12 months, combining the use of new and second-year oak.
Tasting notes: Black cherry red in the glass, good depth. The nose is intense and complex, dominated by notes of black fruit and the Tinta Fina variety at its optimum ripeness. The backdrop offers notes of fine wood, balsam, spices and the toast. The mouth is fleshy and big, with persistent, sweet tanning and a long finish.
Wine Information
Production: 2,500 bottles
Vintage: The year 2016 began with heavy rains in April and May. At the beginning of the summer, the climate became drier and warmer than usual, correcting the imbalances caused by a very rainy spring. September had its regular characteristics, which allowed a regular and graduated harvest.
