Raul Moreno
Raul Moreno produces wines from Andalucía, Spain's southern region, drawing on indigenous grape varieties that define the area's winemaking character. The winery's portfolio centers on distinctive expressions: La Retahíla, made from Perruno; La Pretensión, a Moscatel; and La Esencia, a blend of Pedro Ximenez, Tintilla de Rota, and Palomino. These wines have been assessed by Decanter and Wine Advocate. The selection reflects Andalucía's tradition of working with local varieties—grapes suited to the region's warm climate and limestone soils. Perruno, Moscatel, and the trio of Pedro Ximenez, Tintilla de Rota, and Palomino each bring their own textural and aromatic signatures to the glass. Raul Moreno's focus on these regional varieties positions the winery within Andalucía's broader viticultural identity, where such grapes have long anchored local production.
