Viña Pomal Selección 106 Reserva is a testament to this heritage, a meticulously crafted red wine that embodies the soul of Rioja.
This wine is produced by Bodegas Bilbaínas - Viña Pomal, a winery with a legacy dating back to 1901. The winery has a commitment to quality and tradition. Crafted from 100% Tempranillo grapes, carefully selected from the best plots, this Reserva offers a captivating journey for the senses.

On the nose, an intoxicating blend of aromas unfolds – ripe red and black fruits mingle with notes of vanilla, oak, and a subtle hint of spice. These aromas come from the 18 months aging in American oak barrels.
On the palate, the wine is dry, and reveals the wine's well-structured tannins and balanced acidity. The flavors mirror the aromas, with layers of dark cherry, plum, and cedar unfolding with each sip. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a memorable impression of elegance and complexity.

Allow it to breathe for 30 minutes before serving to further enhance its complexity.
This wine is a perfect choice for those seeking a taste of classic Rioja with a modern touch. It's an experience that will transport you to the sun-drenched vineyards of Spain and leave you wanting more.
