The Winery

Ramón Bilbao

The history of Ramon Bilbao is the materialisation of the idea of the man who gave his name to the winery. A project that revisits classic Rioja concepts such as Tempranillo or American oak, to give a fruitier and fresher version of Rioja Alta, to become one of the most admired brands in the world.

Description of Ramon Bilbao Mirto

1999, the end of a decade in which Rioja wine was looking for a new path, a turn towards the wines of the New World. It was looking for the lost finesse and freshness, and it fought against the prominence of the wood of aging at the same time that it claimed the concept of terroir. Mirto finds here its place to begin a revolution, that of the modern and fresh shades obtained from some vineyards located in privileged places. A wine that offers at the same time consistency and freshness, balance, fluidity and noble strength. We could say that Mirto has marked a before and after in the history of Wineries Ramón Bilbao, leading a movement that goes beyond the established.
