Emilio Moro Malleolus, Ribera del Duero (2022)
The 2022 Vintage
Bodegas Emilio Moro represents the pinnacle of modern winemaking in Ribera del Duero, and Malleolus is the cuvée that redefined the estate's identity. Meaning ‘small vineyard’ in Latin, this wine is crafted exclusively from Camino Viejo - a selection of high-elevation, ancient Tinto Fino vines that embody the raw power and limestone-driven elegance of the region.
The winemaking philosophy is an uncompromising pursuit of depth and structural longevity. Following a meticulous selection process, the fruit undergoes an extended maceration to extract profound colour and tannin, followed by an 18-month maturation in 100% French oak barrels. This patient, traditional approach integrates the intense dark fruit with sophisticated toasted notes, resulting in a red that possesses an almost architectural presence on the palate while maintaining a remarkable, silken refinement.
Pouring this bottle is an encounter with a Spanish icon. It delivers a deeply commanding profile of black cherry, plum, and espresso, underpinned by a distinct mineral tension and savoury layers of leather and spice. It is an intellectual, powerfully built red that demands a serious table, perfectly equipped to anchor a classic roast suckling pig or a slow-braised beef short rib.
