Spain: Emilio Moro

Located in the Ribera del Duero region of Spain, Emilio Moro represents a devotion to wine-making that goes back 3 generations. The family’s commitment survived the Spanish Civil War, when it held fast to grape-growing while most other farmers turned to more lucrative crops. The Emilio Moro Wineries stand out among their contemporaries because of their emphasis on research and technology to optimise the grape-growing process, and reduce the likelihood of certain vine diseases.

The Emilio Moro Wineries are located in the Ribera Del Duero region, known for its hot summers and long, frigid winters.

The crushing and de-stemming machinery acts like a giant dishwasher for the grapes.

Emilio Moro prides itself on extensive understanding of its region, and the ability to adapt to suit each vintage produced.

Our guide, Alicia, explains that the wineries use the purest clone of the Tempranillo grape, known as "Tinto Fino".

The vineyards are in the valleys along the Duero River, and Emilio Moro has developed a deep understanding of the soil makeup.

In line with the wineries' commitment to sustainability, 50% of the profits from Clon de la Familia go towards the Emilio Moro Foundation, "Wine Helps Water".

The wineries do not adhere to traditional rules about aging and classification. Each vintage is different, so they adapt the rules to suit.

A warm colour palette and bright, sun-filled spaces are characteristic of the Emilio Moro winery.

The Emilio Moro wines have more structure than the lighter Cepa 21 wines, due to the Emilio Moro vineyards facing the southern sun on the north side of the Duero River.
