Emilio Moro - El Zarzal Godello | Spanish White Wine

El Zarzal is a white wine made by Bodegas Emilio Moro, D.O. Bierzo.

The history of Bodegas Emilio Moro is that of a family that has been dedicated to wine for more than half a century, where the first generation devoted its efforts to the land, the second taught the third generation the know-how, and the latter has built up a brand that has become an international benchmark.
They currently own 200 hectares of vineyards, all grafted with the purest Tinto Fino clone. The oldest of these, located in the Valderramiro estate, in the heart of Ribera del Duero, date from 1924.
Harvest after harvest, Emilio Moro has discovered its own precise identity in the production of the traditional reds of Ribera del Duero, with a modern touch.

El Zarzal is a white wine made with Godello grapes from vineyards located in Valle del Silencio (León), more than 600 meters above sea level, on loamy clay-sandy soils, with a slightly acid pH.
After harvesting by hand, the wine is fermented at a controlled temperature in 2,500 liter foudres where it remains on its fine lees for 8 months.
