Extend the gastronomic experience in your home with the range of white wines made from Godello grapes and the limited edition Malleolus case by Jorge Vázquez.
Furthermore, for white wine lovers, Bodegas Emilio Moro also has three wines made from the Godello grape variety, grown in its vineyards in El Bierzo. A range of three wines: Polvorete, El Zarzal and La Revelía, characterised by the freshness of their grapes, their aromatic potential and their excellent ageing capacity, are the family’s great commitment to white wines.
Polvorete is the youngest of the Godello wines, due to its freshness and youth. Made with temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, it is an easy wine but full of nuances. On the bouquet it has a base of white fruit characteristic of the variety, with light citrus notes that bring freshness. It has a perfect balance of acidity and body. PVP: €9.80
El Zarzal, is characterised by a creation based on the weather in El Bierzo which, in 2016, when the first harvest was carried out, began with rain and high water reserves accumulated during the winter, normal spring temperatures and a dry summer period that lasted until the days before the harvest, which brought the harvest forward, guaranteeing the optimum ripening point of the grapes. Its freshness and balanced acidity make you want to taste it again. PVP: €15.90
La Revelía, on the other hand, is the most subtle, suggestive and complex wine of the white wine range of Bodegas Emilio Moro in El Bierzo. It represents the purest expression of the Godello variety with its acidity, with an ageing on lees in barrels that provides body and richness, and for the range of evolution that this white wine has in the bottle. PVP: €24.90
Moreover, for fashion lovers, Bodegas Emilio Moro has created a synergy between the world of wine and the world of fashion, uniting around a unique experience based on the values that Jorge Vázquez and Bodegas Emilio Moro share. Thus, the Galician designer has created a limited edition case (only 500 units) for one of the winery’s most iconic red wines, Malleolus by Jorge Vázquez. The box, with a simple and elegant shape, is crafted in cream tones highlighted by the characteristic Malleolus orange colour and, when opened, surprises with a print customised by the designer.
