General Information
Viña Pomal 106 Barricas Reserva 2019 is a historic wine that pays tribute to the 2010 vintage, rated as excellent, coinciding with the 106th anniversary of the first harvest of Viña Pomal.
A red wine that takes shape thanks to a selection of the best 106 barrels of the harvest, and treated with utmost care and attention: fermentation with native yeasts, 23 days of maceration, and an exceptional use of wood make this wine one of Viña Pomal's favorites.
Bodegas Bilbainas and its brand Viña Pomal are part of Spanish wine history. The winery was the first to implement the bottling process in Spain, and Viña Pomal was one of the first brands launched on the market. The exceptional quality of the range has achieved numerous successes throughout its history, and it is the umbrella for a selection of wines that perfectly define the tradition and evolution of Rioja wines.
Mayte Calvo de la Banda, the winemaker of Viña Pomal 106 Barricas 2019, recommends pairing this rioja with hearty dishes, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.

The winery
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.
