The Story Behind the Wine
La RevelĂa 2021 represents the peak of Bodegas Emilio Moro’s Godello expression, crafted in the unique terroir of El Bierzo. This vintage is aged on its lees in lightly toasted French oak barrels, which gives it richness and complexity. Bodegas Emilio Moro, historically known for its Ribera del Duero wines, ventured into El Bierzo in 2016 to elevate the Godello grape. The vineyard, located on the middle slopes of Bierzo’s hills, provides an ideal environment for the Godello variety, with its cool climate and mineral-rich soils​.
Pairing Suggestions
- Seafood: Perfect with prawn carpaccio, as the wine's acidity complements the delicate flavors of the dish.
- Poultry: Try it with roasted duck breast accompanied by apple purée to enhance the wine's richness.
- Cheese: Pairs beautifully with soft cheeses like brie or goat cheese, as the wine's minerality balances the creaminess​.
