Ramon Bilbao Limited Edition – A Bold, Modern Take on Classic Rioja
Uncork the bold essence of Spanish winemaking with Ramon Bilbao Limited Edition. This refined red wine is a contemporary expression of tradition, showcasing the finesse and structure of 100% Tempranillo grapes cultivated in Rioja Alta—Spain’s most prestigious wine-growing region. With its balanced oak influence, vibrant fruit profile, and elegant structure, this limited edition offering stands as a true testament to modern craftsmanship rooted in heritage.
Crafted for those who appreciate complexity and character in every glass, Ramón Bilbao Limited Edition brings together intensity, depth, and drinkability in perfect harmony.
A Unique Terroir, A Timeless Grape
This wine originates in Rioja Alta, where high elevations and a blend of Atlantic and Mediterranean climates create optimal conditions for Tempranillo to flourish. The grapes are carefully selected from vineyards planted in nutrient-poor, gravelly soils that naturally limit yields and enhance concentration.
The result? A wine with remarkable personality—structured yet smooth, powerful yet nuanced.
Winemaking Philosophy
Ramón Bilbao Limited Edition is created with precision and purpose. After a careful harvest and fermentation, the wine undergoes 14 months of aging in a combination of new French and American oak barrels. This aging process imparts subtle vanilla, spice, and toast notes while allowing the wine’s rich fruit core to shine. Following barrel maturation, the wine is bottle-aged for an additional 10 months, refining its tannins and enhancing its complexity.
Tasting Notes
Color: Deep, vibrant ruby red with flashes of violet—an indicator of both youth and intensity.
Aroma: Expressive and layered, with ripe blackberries, cherries, and plums leading the way. Subtle hints of clove, cocoa, cedar, and vanilla emerge from the background, offering elegance and complexity.
Palate: Full-bodied and beautifully structured. Dark fruits dominate initially, followed by warm spice, tobacco, and a touch of balsamic reduction. Fine-grained tannins and a polished mouthfeel carry through to a long, satisfying finish.
Finish: Lingering and elegant, with a balance of oak, spice, and fruit that invites another sip.
Perfect Pairings
Ramón Bilbao Limited Edition is a versatile companion at the table. Its depth and structure pair seamlessly with a wide range of foods:
-
Grilled or Roasted Meats: Think lamb chops, dry-rubbed ribs, or steak au poivre.
-
Hearty Spanish Cuisine: Pair with chorizo, lamb stew, or roasted red peppers.
-
Cheese Board Favorites: Complements hard, aged cheeses like Manchego, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or mature Gouda.

Mushroom Dishes: The earthy richness of mushrooms enhances the wine’s oak and spice notes.
