Viña Pomal Crianza Red Wine

The Viña Pomal Crianza, the classic wine from Bodegas Bilbainas made with 100% Tempranillo grapes from D.O.Ca Rioja. Founded in 1859 in the Haro region, in the legendary Rioja Alta, Bodegas Bilbaínas is one of Spain’s oldest and most emblematic wineries. Its story begins when a group of merchants from Bilbao decided to invest in the thriving wine business of the time, focusing on producing high-quality wines. Over the years, the winery has maintained its commitment to excellence and has incorporated modern technology to complement its traditional winemaking methods. The Tempranillo grape variety is the soul of Viña Pomal Crianza. This grape, also known as tinta del país or tinta de Toro, is one of the most important and representative of La Rioja region. Its clusters produce wines with a rich flavor palette, characterized by ripe red fruits, spicy notes and an elegant structure. The choice of Tempranillo grape is key in creating this iconic red wine and is reflected in its distinction and personality.

The winemaking process of Viña Pomal Crianza is a careful combination of tradition and modern technology.

The grapes are hand-harvested during vintage to ensure that only the finest clusters reach the winery. Subsequently, the grapes undergo meticulous selection and destemming before being fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine undergoes aging in American and French oak barrels for at least 12 months, followed by bottle aging to refine its character and allow its flavors to fully develop. In addition to its exquisite flavor, Viña Pomal Crianza also reflects the historical legacy and passion for viticulture of Bodegas Bilbaínas. Each bottle is a showcase of La Rioja’s rich winemaking tradition and the hard work of generations of winegrowers and oenologists who have contributed to its development and international recognition.
