The Story Behind the Wine
Elalba Rosé 2022 marks a new beginning for Bodegas Emilio Moro, being the first rosé crafted by this iconic Ribera del Duero winery. With a limited production of only 4,800 bottles, this wine is a true representation of the winery's innovative spirit. Made from 60% Tempranillo and 40% Albillo Mayor, the grapes are harvested and vinified together to create a harmonious blend of red and white varietals​

The winery, located in Pesquera de Duero, is a family-run business now in its third generation. The Emilio Moro family is deeply rooted in the history and tradition of Ribera del Duero winemaking, yet they continue to embrace new opportunities, such as the creation of Elalba. Fun fact: the name "Elalba" is inspired by the dawn, symbolizing new beginnings and the beauty of the morning light​.
