La Vicalanda Tempranillo Blanco 2023 es un magnífico blanco riojano procedente de cepas de más de 25 años de la finca Viña Pomal, un terroir ubicado en los alrededores del Barrio de La Estación de Haro (D.O.Ca. Rioja), donde se alzan las instalaciones de Bodegas Bilbaínas. Fruto de un proyecto basado en la sostenibilidad, con viñedos en secano, vegetación espontánea y el mantenimiento de colonias de aves rapaces como conceptos clave, este blanco fermentado en tinas de madera y criado en fudres durante 6 meses se muestra vivo, fresco y mineral, con una nariz rica, elegante y compleja.

Located in the famous wine region of the Barrio de la Estación in Haro, Bodegas Bilbaínas is one of the historic and benchmark wineries in Rioja. Its origins date back to 1859, when the Bordeaux house Savignon Frères et Cie, fleeing the phylloxera plague, settled in Haro to produce and export wine to France. In 1901, a group of entrepreneurs from Bilbao acquired the facilities, also building a new and monumental winery with underground cellars. Thus, the Bodegas Bilbaínas company was definitively established.
In a short time, its wines gained a strong reputation. So much so that in 1925, this house was honored with the title of Supplier to the Royal Household and Heritage. In 1997, the winery became part of the Grupo Codorníu, undergoing a profound renovation of its facilities and vineyards, as well as a modernization of its wine styles.
Today, Bodegas Bilbaínas boasts an exceptionally extensive estate-owned vineyard in La Rioja: 250 hectares spread across the Haro region, within the subzone of Rioja Alta; and it has enviably solid brands that encompass different styles: from the most classic Viña Pomal, to La Vicalanda (Alta Expresión) and the more modern and youthful Viña Zaco.
