La Felisa is the new wine from Emilio Moro. The 2016 vintage was the very first vintage of this completely organic wine and contains no added sulfites. Felisa was the Madre Familair (and current generation Grandma) of the Moro family and this wine pays homage to her. In addition to organic, this fantastic wine is also not clarified / filtered with animal products (protein) and is therefore Vegan.

The wine is made from the Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) of vineyards between 15 and 25 years old. The maceration lasted 18 days with the grapes in their skins and then the wine had 12 months of education in new oak. In the glass, the Felisa has a deep cherry red vibrant color. In the nose, the aromas dominate in their purest and primary version, with notes of black fruit, violet and licorice. There are also banquet notes such as toffee and vanilla. In the mouth the wine lives with clear ripe tannins. The La Felisa has a firm and long aftertaste with the fruit and freshness in it. It is the BIO De La Felisa is a beautiful wine with great intensity and freshness. Only around 9000 bottles are made, so supply will always be very limited of this beautiful wine from Emilio Moro

The family business Emilio Moro has been located in Pesquera del Duero since 1892. This bodega boasts a three-generation tradition and includes vineyards over 90 years old. Due to their long history, they have been able to expand their vineyards very specifically with mostly Tinto Fino. The Finca Resalso and Crianza excel in purity, elegance and complexity. The top cuvées are of rare class; the very old vines of these two 'Pagos' give an extremely low yield resulting in very complex wines with a great depth and temperament.

In 1987 Emilio Moro first launched his own wines under his own label. With about 200 hectares of vineyards and a total annual production of 1.5 million bottles, it is a modern and large company. Thanks to its high quality standards and innovative management, it is also one of the leading wine companies. This applies not only in Spain but money worldwide and this is also confirmed that it has been nominated by Wine Enthusiast as Best Winery of the World. Emilio Moro's focus on Research, Development and Innovation is impressive and the enormous focus on quality is certainly an important factor in the high quality of all wines, but let's not forget that the old Emilio Moro vineyards are located in the most beautiful part of the Ribera del Duero with a completely unique and extremely suitable terroir located at a great height. In 2017, Wine Spectator placed the Emilio Moro in 59th place in the Prestigious Top 100 of the world's best wines.

In 2008, Emilio Moro died at the age of 75. In the same year, the Emilio Moro foundation was established, which is committed to providing poor regions of the world with clean drinking water and improving living conditions. Javier & José Moro are now in charge.

The emilio moro portfolio consists of 5 red wines, all of which are made from the regional variant of the Tempranillo (tinto fino). The special thing is that a very old pure clone is used. The vineyards range from 30-90 years old, but even the younger vineyards are from the lots of this unique clone. Emilio moro does not use the terms Crianza or Reserva and the name of the wine stands for the character of the wine.
