Bodegas Emilio Moro "Malleolus Sanchomartin" Ribera Del Duero is a red wine from the Castilla y Leon region in Spain. The absolute winner in Emilio Moro's range. Pricey, but still a godsend compared to many grands crus classés from Bordeaux of the same quality. The Sancho Martin comes from a vineyard of only 0.84ha, so supply is extremely limited. The Sancho Martin is one of the most sublime tempranillo wines from Bodegas Emilio Moro. Named in honor of the Pago de Sanchomartín, a vineyard located in Pesquera de Duero, which was planted in 1944. It is a wine of great variety, but with the personality of the limestone soils. It stands out as a powerful, elegant and persistent wine.

The 2019 vegetative cycle was preceded by the April rains. However, from mid-spring to the end of summer, the year was characterized by scanty rainfall and higher than expected temperatures. The harvest began after a few rainy days, which helped to balance the composition of the grapes and resulted in a year of exceptional quality and optimal health.

The vineyard is located on terroir of a mixture of sandy clay, marl and limestone. Both the malolactic fermentation and aging are carried out in new French oak barrels. Maturation takes 18 months. In the glass the wine has an intense, deep cherry red color. Complex and elegant aromas with subtle, floral notes that include liqueurs, mulberry and blackcurrant. The balsamic notes of the oak are perfectly integrated into the ensemble of the wine. Warm and sweet on the palate with balanced acidity and great quality of tannins that caress the palate. The wine has a warm aftertaste that lasts forever. Only around 2,000 bottles of this great 2019 Sancho Martin were made.

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.
