The Moro family has been fashioning wines from Ribera del Duero for over 120 years. This impressive offering emerges from relatively young vines (12-20 years of age), and modest yields. The vinification and upbringing is classical, with 25 days of maceration, and 12 months of aging in a combination of old and new French and American oak. One-thousand cases of this vintage has been exported to the United States. Given the quality, this is an realistically priced wine that merits considerable attention. The 1998 Malleolus is produced from 25-75-year old vines and minuscule yields of .85 to one ton of fruit per acre. Aged completely in French oak, it is a tighter, more structured effort revealing underlying depth as well as aging potential. While dense, powerful, and concentrated, it requires 2-3 years of cellaring, and should age gracefully for 12-15 years.
