Summer is synonymous with heat, terraces, plans, getaways, meetings with friends, celebrations, events… On each of these occasions there is something essential: wine. And during the summer season, one of the best options is white wine.
There is no doubt that in our country we have a wonderful wealth of wine and there is no bad option, but, if we have to choose, the ones that never fail are Bodegas Emilio Moro’s whites, made with the Godello variety, native to the area of Galicia and León, which are very popular.
Every wine lover knows the history of Bodegas Emilio Moro. It is one of the leading wineries in Ribera del Duero, with more than 100 years of tradition, but thanks to its white wines, it has made a name for itself in El Bierzo.
A unique area perfect for sightseeing, organising a getaway and enjoying nature, crowning the experience with a tasting of the magnificent Godello wines from Bodegas Emilio Moro in El Bierzo.
Three colours, three sensations, three summer dreams
Their love for the Godello grape variety led them to embark on this project with the hope of producing white wines of great excellence, something they have achieved with their three wines: Polvorete, El Zarzal and La Revelía.
For those who prefer a young, fun and carefree wine, Polvorete is the wine for you. A wine that was created to make the wonders of the Godello grape known to everyone, easy to enjoy. Clean, bright, faint greenish-yellow in colour, with floral and citrus notes in the bouquet. It is fresh and elegant on the palate, and its balanced acidity gives rise to a complete and intense wine that invites one to drink.
El Zarzal 2020, whose vintage has been recently released, has a very evident varietal character without renouncing its freshness. Of a faint straw-yellow colour, it has an unmistakable brightness in the glass. The bouquet exhibits the particularities of the Godello grape in all its expression, with aromas of ripe white fruit and stone fruit. On the palate it retains a freshness and balanced acidity, it is full-bodied and easy to drink. The perfect wine to seduce the most demanding palates.
La Revelía, on the other hand, is the maximum expression of the Godello varietal character. Complex, intense and fine with a unique personality. It is aged on its lees in French oak barrels, which gives it volume and length on the palate. It has an intense straw-yellow colour, clean and bright. It reveals complex notes with hints of ripe stone fruit and dried flowers in the bouquet and is smooth on the palate with the characteristic acidity of the Godello grape.
Three wines with three very distinct personalities that convey unique sensations and are perfect for pairing with celebrations with friends, family gatherings or intimate getaways where wine is the icing on the cake this summer. Whether it is Polvorete, El Zarzal or La Revelía, cooling off with them is a real summer dream.
