The Rioja Gran Reserva DOCa by Ramón Bilbao presents scih with a dark red in the glass. On the nose it shows a complex, very intense bouquet, with the aromas of ripe, red fruits and perfectly integrated roasted notes of the barrique finish.
On the palate, this Spanish cuvée is tasteful, body-rich, full-bodied and wonderfully balanced. Harmonious and spicy tannins lead into a long, powerful and elegant finale.
Vinification of the Rioja Gran Reserva DOca of Ramón Bilbao
This red wine is a great top wine from Ramón Bilbao. It is vinified from 90% Tempranillo and 5% each from Mazuelo and Garnacha, two traditional grape varieties from the Rioja wine-growing region.
