General Information

Viña Pomal Vinos Singulares Garnacha 2019 is a harmonious wine, with volume and excellent fruity expression, made from old vines located at more than 600 meters above sea level in Rioja. This high-altitude garnacha offers an exceptional aromatic range, balance on the palate, and freshness worthy of the most planted variety in the world.

The delicacy required by garnacha demands extreme care in the winery, with cold pre-maceration and short macerations. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels and ages for 10 months in 500-liter bocoyes. After bottling, it rests for at least one year in the winery to achieve roundness.

The Viña Pomal brand represents the winemaking tradition of Rioja, and with this Vinos Singulares collection, Bodegas Bilbaínas aims to empower the traditional red varieties of the region. These are experimental wines, produced in small quantities, boasting varietal typicity and excellent quality.

Viña Pomal Vinos Singulares Garnacha 2019 is a wine under the D.O. Ca. Rioja that is highly versatile for pairing throughout a meal. It pairs perfectly with cheeses, vegetables, rice dishes, duck, or oily fish.

Creators' opinion

The winery

Bodegas Bilbaínas

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.
