Adegas Moure: a journey through time and wine that stops off at FINE
One of the first-time exhibitors at FINE #WineTourism Marketplace is Adegas Moure, in the Ribeira Sacra, a wine region of extraordinary beauty and historical richness in northwest Spain, particularly in Galicia. This area is famous for its dramatic landscape, characterised by rugged canyons and meandering rivers, particularly the Miño and Sil, which have shaped its geography over the centuries.
Adegas Moure represents a history that intertwines family, tradition and passion for wine. Born from the vision of a young Baldomero Moure, the winery has travelled through generations within the same family, one that has always valued humility and hard work.
In 1892, Baldomero, raised in a humble family, is forced to emigrate to Cuba. There, his tenacity led him to save enough money to return to Galicia and buy land in A Cova, where he began his dream of winemaking.
The evolution of Adegas Moure is marked by key moments: the production of its first wines and marc in the 1920s, the official founding of the winery in 1958 by José Moure and Ana Vázquez, and the introduction of Albariño in its vineyards, a decision that would forever change the destiny of the winery.
Over the years, the Moure family, with the incorporation of new generations, has innovated and expanded its presence, not only in the Ribeira Sacra but also in international markets.
Today, Adegas Moure is a living testimony of heroic viticulture, a legacy carried forward by the fourth generation of the family, with a constant focus on experimentation and improvement in the field and the winery.
