ABOUT THIS WINE:
Ramón Bilbao
Albariño
A wise wine with all the knowledge and flavor of the Rioja Alta. Ramón Bilbao Reserve is made using grapes from their vineyards at Rioja Alta, with an average age of 40 years, to bring out this subregion's character where the reserve and great reserve wines are historic to the area. Each plot is harvested in small crates on the day that the grapes achieve perfect ripeness. The clusters then pass over the sorting table from which only the best berries go on to be processed. The juice used in Ramón Bilbao is slowly fermented in tanks to bring out the freshness and exotic character of the Albariño.
NOTE: This is NOT a Firstleaf Exclusive Wine and is not eligible for discounts, member pricing, or member guarantee. Limited Availability.
Due to state registrations, we cannot ship this wine to AL, AZ, CO, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, MD, ME, MI, MO, NJ, NY, OABOUT THIS WINE

The most famous is the fragrant and zingy Albariño, which has found a dedicated fanbase among wine lovers. Usually made in a refreshing, unoaked style, this sought-after wine combines tangy citrus notes with ripe flavors of nectarine and honeydew. Look out too for notes of saline from those cool Atlantic breezes.

TASTING NOTES:
Peach
Apricot
Green Apple
Straw-yellow in color with bright green accents the color of Granny Smith apples. On the nose, fresh aromas and a salty touch mingle with nuances of apricot and peach. On the palate, elegant freshness harmoniously balances the sweet sensations left by the fruit flavors. Smooth and supple with a full body and a lively finish.

ABOUT THE BRAND:
Ramón Bilbao
At Bodegas Ramón Bilbao, they adopt a philosophy centered on giving wines their own personal expression of Rioja Alta, which they do by revisioning classic ingredients like Tempranillo and American oak. The aim is to define a fresh and elegant style, producing fruitier wines in which the character of the grape is fully expressed, rather than hidden behind an excess of wood. In Rioja, they have vineyards that are all over 40 years old. They are located at singular sites around the region, and they stand out for their altitude as well as their proximity to the mountainsides.
