Bodegas Emilio Moro La Felisa Ribera del Duero
Deep, cherry-red color with an aromatic bouquet of currants and blackberries, with notes of violets, licorice, and a hint of citrus. On the palate, it is powerful, offering flavors of dark fruits, licorice, peppers and coffee. The Moro family has been farming vineyards in the Ribera del Duero since 1932, the birth year of Emilio Moro (the patriarch). For two generations, the grapes were sold on the bulk market. In 1988, current proprietor José Moro Espinosa invested the family’s entire savings into winery equipment and Bodegas Emilio Moro was born.
