The 2012 was tastier, and had aged better. (866 views) | | | Tasted by Smartrock on 11/18/2017 & rated 93 points: Top, auch zu Lasagne! (934 views) | | | Tasted by dalemosier on 1/22/2017 & rated 86 points: Very drinkable, nothing notworthy (2109 views) | | | Tasted by FransS on 11/24/2016 & rated 87 points: A bit raisiny, good midtaste, lovely bitters, firm, but acceptable tannins. (2098 views) | | | Tasted by Sniffy-Sniff on 11/7/2016 & rated 89 points: Beautiful dark blueberry, blackberry, earth, touch of spice. Love the texture. Enough minerality to pair with food. Incredible QPR. Drink now. (2232 views) | | | Tasted by ElAzul on 10/26/2016 & rated 88 points: Lots of blueberry notes on the nose and even more on the palate. Still purple with no bricking. This is my last bottle of a six pack and all have been tasty. Tanzer claimed to taste plum and dark chocolate but I only get the plums after 2 hours of opening. A good value wine for food as well as just sipping. (1539 views) | | | Tasted by Smartrock on 1/7/2015 & rated 93 points: Immer wieder top Grill-Rotwein, fruchtig und kraeftig. (193 views) | | | Tasted by redrhonewine on 11/22/2014 & rated 89 points: A great QPR. Love this Tempranillo. Fruit is almost sweet, but with nice spice, mineral backbone proving some body. (3065 views) | | | Tasted by andrewdodd86 on 10/1/2014 & rated 85 points: Solid wine for the price, nice fruit. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Mid range stuff is better. (2071 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 8/4/2014: Spicy and meaty on the nose, with some raspberries and violets. I kinda like it. And some new oak grip just to show it off. Bill notes lots of calamata on the finish and very savory. (2291 views) | | | Tasted by finovino3 on 7/2/2014 & rated 91 points: ST has it right. This is a closed-in sleeper not worth opening before 2015. It will go to 2020 easy. A sleeping giant Duero. Current reviews are for an essentially undrinkable wine. (2226 views) | | | Tasted by theoves on 6/18/2014 & rated 90 points: Pleasant nose of cherries and other ripe fruit. Very soft on the palate with a nice texture. Mild tannins and ready to drink now. A soft, long finish. (2276 views) | | | Tasted by Smartrock on 6/16/2014 & rated 92 points: Schmeckt sehr fruchtig und wuerzig, Farbe fast schwarz-dunkel-kirschrot, Aromen nach Sauerkirschen, Brombeeren, Kraeutern, Holz, Rauch. Sehr trockener, mit kraeftigenen Tanninen gepraegter Nachhall. Muss man bei dem Preis immer zuhause haben. 91/100 Punkte Stephen Tanzer. 90/100 Punkte Guia Penin 2014. Der Jahrgang 2012 praesentiert sich in ueberragender Qualitaet. Entsprechend gehaltvoll und perfekt ausgereift sind die Weine. Bereits im Jahrgang 2010 war der Emilio Moro Finca Resalso unter den besten 100 spanischen Weinen unter US$ 25 im Wine Advocate (Robert Parker). Der Finca Resalso ist der genussvolle Einstiegswein in die vielfaeltige Weinwelt von Emilio Moro. Dieser Wein ein grossartiger Botschafter der Weinkultur am Duero. Wie kaum ein anderer versinnbildlicht er den besonderen Charakter der Tempranillo Rebe im Herzen von Pesquera de Duero, dem Geburtsort von Emilio Moro, dem Gruender der Bodega. (185 views) | | | Tasted by Rojo on 1/7/2014 & rated 90 points: Purple color. Sweet aromas of ripe blueberries, vanilla and mint. Light-medium bodied with satiny texture. Blueberries and vanilla on the palate with sweet tannins on the backend and finishes with dark cocoa. I like this!

For over three generations the legendary Bodegas Emilio Moro has dedicated itself to producing exceptional Tempranillo wines from the “golden mile” of the Ribera del Duero. From the birth of its founder Don Emilio Moro in 1932 the winery has prided itself on producing wines which evoke the land from which they were born all in respect of tradition, innovation and a commitment to social responsibility.
Born into a winemaking family Don Emilio Moro learned everything he knew from his father — a passion for the vines, the earth and the care needed to bring them and their grapes to life. During the mass uprooting over the last century he insisted the family’s old vines be conserved in order to convey the strong terroir they represented. This has lead to wines of great distinction, especially from the vineyards of Sanchomartin and Valderramiro whose vines are over 50-80 years old. Over the years and as his father did he has passed his love for the vines and know-how on to his two sons Jose and Javier Moro, who today run the winery with the same commitment and conviction that their father once did.
The Bodegas today has around 200 hectares of land, all planted and grafted with the purest clone of the indigenous Tempranillo variety, “Tinto Fino”, recouped from their oldest vineyard. With four separate vineyards (Resalso, Camino Viejo, Sanchomartin and Valderramiro) planted at between 700 and 1000 meters above sea-level, each showcases a distinct soil and climate which in turn produce wines with a distinctive personality and soul. Following their philosophy of commitment and innovation each wine is produced using a mix of traditional and modern techniques, incorporating the use of stainless steel tanks and oak barrels in the vinification, resulting in pure terroir-driven wines.
The Bodegas Emilio Moro invites you to visit and experience first hand the vineyards, barrel cellars and of course wines by booking a tour and tasting.Tempranillo Varietal character (Appellation America) | TAPAS: Tempranillo Advocates, Producers and Amigos Society
Tempranillo is the premium red wine grape variety from the Rioja and Ribera del Duero region in Spain. Tempranillo's aromas and flavors often combine elements of berryish fruit, herbaceousness, and an earthy-leathery minerality. Being low in acidity and sugar content, it is commonly blended with Carignan (Mazuela), Grenache (Garnacha), Graciano, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

The varietal is at its best in top Riojas, where oak aging is employed to generate increased complexity and harmony. From the best sites, these wines can be remarkably concentrated with great aging potential. New wines from this region are darker, and more robust, with more dynamic primary fruit flavors than traditionally styled examples. These wines seem to reflect the influence of Spain's other key region for Tempranillo, Ribera del Duero. Regardless of style, Riojas tend to be medium bodied wines, with more acid than tannins. These wines generally feature Tempranillo blended with Garancha, Mazuelo, and Graciano. For these wines, there are three quality levels, which will appear on the label. Everyday drinking wines fall under the category of "Crianza", "Reserva" denotes more complex and concentrated wines, and "Gran Reserva" refers to the most intense wines, made only in the best years.
The same labeling scheme applies to wines from Ribera del Duero, which, like Rioja, is dominated by Tempranillo and shares similar blending grapes. Again, Ribera del Duero wines are generally darker and more powerful than the most traditional Riojas. These wines also generally see less oak treatment than Riojas. From Rioja, we like wines from Allende, Marqués de Cáceres, Montecillo, and Cune. In Ribera del Duero, consider Dominio de Pingus, Emilio Moro, Convento San Francisco, and Pesquera.
Pair older-style Rioja with simple meats like chicken, leg of lamb, and pork loin. However, the newer style of Rioja and Ribera del Duero works especially well with bolder meat dishes or an aged Spanish cheese like Manchego or Idiazabal.

Spain is the third largest wine producing nation in the world, occupying the majority of the Iberian Peninsula with vast diversity in climate, culture, and of course, wine. From inky, dark reds of the [Priorat] to dry, white Finos from Andalusia, Spain can easily boast of elaborating a wide variety of notable styles. Within Spain there are currently 62 demarcated wine regions, of which a handful have gained international recognition: [Rioja], Priorat and [Ribera del Duero]. Yet these regions are only a small sample of the high quality wines Spain produces. Regions such as Cava, Penedes, Somontano, Galicia, Rueda and Jerez are only a few of the numerous regions worthy of exploration throughout Spain. Spain can also lay claim to having the most land under vine in the world, growing up to, by some accounts, 600 indigenous varietals of which Tempranillo is their most well known. Other popular varietals include [Garnacha], Bobal and Monastrell for reds and for whites; the infamous [sic] Palomino Fino grape which is used in the production of sherry wine, Pedro Ximenez in Montilla Morilles, Albarino used in the creation of the bright, effervescent wines of Galicia, and Verdejo in Rueda. - Source: - Catavino.net
Spain is not in the forefront of winemaking for its dessert wines, other than for its sweet wines from Sherry country including the highly revered Olorosos (when sweetened). But apart from Sherry Spain has a range of styles of dessert wines, ranging from the those made from the Pedro Ximenez grape primarily in Jerez and Montilla-Moriles) to luscious, red dessert wines made in the Mediterranean from the Garnacha (Grenache) grape. Some good Moscatels are made in Mallorca, Alicante and Navarre. The northwest corner of Spain, Galicia, with its bitter Atlantic climate, is even making dessert wines, called “Tostadillos” in the village of Ribadivia (similar to France’s “Vin de Paille”). The Canary Islands have made interesting dessert wines for centuries (they are mentioned by Shakespeare, for example) and in recent years the quality of winemaking has been improved and the Canary Islands wines are being better marketed now. The winemaking styles for “Vinos Dulces” are also diverse, from “Late Harvest” (Vendimia Tardía) to “Fortified Wines” (Fermentación Parcial).
