Vintage Report

The 2022 vintage in Rioja has been rated 95 points by Robert Parker, indicating excellent quality. The wines are currently still youthful and tannic, meaning they will develop beautifully over the coming years.

Imagine a Crianza from Rioja that embodies the essence of the region in every sip. That's precisely what Ramón Bilbao offers us with this enchanting wine. Fourteen months of patient aging in American oak barrels, followed by another eight months in Ramón Bilbao's historic cellars, make this wine undeniably top-notch. The strategic location of Ramón Bilbao's vineyards—where the warm wind from the Sierra de Cantabria intersects with the fresh Mediterranean breeze—produces grapes of unparalleled quality. With the Ebro River as its lifeblood, the grapes benefit from both daytime ripeness and nighttime freshness.

Tradition and Innovation: The Vineyards of Ramon Bilbao

Delving into the past, the story of the Ramon Bilbao winery stretches back to the early 1900s. It is a place where passion and dedication go hand in hand with the production of both vibrant white wines and robust reds. The Tempranillo grape, the star of Rioja, is central to their range. What makes Ramon Bilbao unique is their ability to combine the latest winemaking techniques with the rich Spanish winemaking traditions. Their vineyards, located in Haro's Rioja Alta—the epicenter of premium Rioja wines—enjoy limestone and loamy soils. This, combined with the delicate balance of warm and cool winds, results in grapes that impart unparalleled freshness and richness to the wine.

Ramon Bilbao Crianza: A Symphony of Taste

The Ramón Bilbao Crianza, made purely from Tempranillo grapes, presents itself in a brilliant ruby red robe. Upon opening the bottle, you're greeted by a rich bouquet of dark fruit, plums, and sandalwood accents, complemented by hints of balsamic, coconut, and licorice. It's a fragrance that invites you to explore deeper. And the taste? Pure elegance. Notes of blackberry, cherry, and spice mingle with nuances of black pepper, vanilla, and oak. A true treat for the senses.
