General Information
Elegant, balanced, and round, Viña Pomal Crianza Magnum 2021 combines the best of classic Rioja style with a touch of modernity thanks to its excellent fruity presence. A Tempranillo that stands out for the quality of its raw materials and faithfully reflects the identity of the wines from the Rioja Alta subzone.
The acquisition of the Sauvignon Frères et Cie winery by a group of businessmen from Bilbao in 1901 marked the birth of Bodegas Bilbaínas. After becoming a benchmark in national viticulture for decades, a new chapter for Bodegas Bilbaínas began in 1997 with its incorporation into the Raventós Codorníu group, a major winery conglomerate that modernized the image and style of the wines from the Barrio de la Estación winery in Haro.
Viña Pomal Crianza Magnum 2021 is crafted through traditional vinification: after destemming and crushing the grapes, alcoholic fermentation began, followed by a maceration process lasting two weeks. The result is a smooth, pleasant wine with excellent fruity intensity from the D.O.Ca. Rioja, perfect for pairing with cheeses, pâtés, rice dishes, fish, stews, and vegetables.
Creators' opinion
Viña Pomal Crianza es un vino de color rojo picota con destellos violáceos. En nariz tiene una alta intensidad aromática donde despuntan aromas a violetas, frutos negros y regaliz, seguidos de notas de vainilla y torrefactos. En boca es suave, envolvente, equilibrado y fresco, con buena estructura y taninos suaves.
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.
