Respecting and maintaining our family heritage is very important to us. We preserve our history and our origins so that they will endure and be present in every step we take towards the future. A future in which we, the fourth generation, are immersed and for which we are working to be better.
We have grown up among barrels and vineyards, living the grape harvest as a game and learning about the production of our wines, to later dedicate ourselves to it with the same passion as our grandfather.
Patricia Sánchez Moro, general manager of Bodegas Emilio Moro. She has been linked to the world of wine all her life and has been running the family winery since 2022. The eldest of Emilio and Felisa’s grandchildren, she admits that her most special memories do not revolve around a Christmas full of toys, but of playing among the vineyards with her cousins, while her grandfather dedicated himself to making great wines.
As she grew up, the game became her passion and today she recognises that it is what drives her world. As the only oenologist in the family, her love of wine transcends the professional sphere and has become one of the hobbies that allows her to disconnect from the daily hustle and bustle. Those who know her know that she loves driving, but if she’s in the company of Leiva, Fito or Sabina, decibels are never a problem. Her other passion has a surname and it’s Moro. Her family, with whom she shares her daily life and with whom she works to fulfil a common dream. May her grandfather’s legacy transcend frontiers and the culture of wine be embraced by the world.
Alberto Medina Moro, Sales Director for the Americas. He has been in the commercial department of the winery for several years and manages a key market for Bodegas Emilio Moro, Mexico. He defines himself as a lover of his work, thanks to which he is in constant contact with the legacy of his grandfather, Emilio, to whom he was very close and for whom he feels immense gratitude. From him he inherited a passion for cooking and for food, not as something functional, but as an element of enjoyment in his daily life, paella being one of his favourite dishes. Although it is in a moment that our American friends define as the good old days, it is working to make a difference every day. Travelling, meeting people, sharing with his family are hobbies he has had since he was a child. Now, sport, music, good fiction and gastronomy are what he enjoys most in his free time. An advocate of the philosophy that there isn’t always only one right way to do things, he believes that in life, being kind is the most important thing: “Always be kind, everyone is fighting a battle.”
Mario Sanchez Moro, a natural traveller, takes on the role of Head of US Sales within the Business Development department in 2021. When asked about what he likes most in the world, his answer doesn’t change (travelling) and his nomadic spirit allows him to get to know as many cultures as countries, and that for him is a real gift, especially if he can add the family component, since, due to his work, he can’t enjoy them as much as he would like to. From his grandmother, La Feli, he inherited his love of cooking. Meeting his American friends over an omelette with a good red wine is a favourite in the United States, where he now lives. From his mother, Rubi, he has inherited his passion for nature. He admits that when he comes home, his favourite thing to do is to walk with his dog while enjoying good music, no matter what style. Sport is his anchor, which keeps him grounded, and he always has time to enjoy a series while discovering white wines, a variety he enjoys more and more every day. His main goal is to grow, both personally and professionally, and to do so while making those around him happy by dedicating time to what is important. Enjoying life is what drives him, and that is what he wants for others.
Héctor Medina Moro, after a consolidated professional career in companies in Madrid, took on the role of Marketing Director of the winery in 2022, leading all the communication and marketing activities of the winery. A marketing enthusiast with a high capacity for analysis, he declares himself a lover of after-dinner conversations, with a red wine for dessert, preferably Malleolus de Valderramiro. His grandfather Emilio taught him how important it is to be able to taste a wine until the end. That is why, whenever possible, he seeks to enjoy a glass from start to finish, admiring how the wine evolves. For him, his family and friends are the most important thing. Competition runs through his veins, football being his means of escape. Having played and watched the sport as a spectator, it takes him back to his childhood and moves him, especially when he sees his team, Real Valladolid, play. A lover of good food, if given the choice, he prefers to enjoy a good restaurant rather than become a cook for a day. Not being one to give advice, the only thing he expects from his loved ones is that they be happy and, being more of a giver than a taker, on this occasion and as an exception, the only thing he asks is that it be in their company.
