Product Notes

Baigorri Rioja Crianza is an exquisite Spanish red wine sourced from Spain's prominent Rioja region. It offers a sophisticated blend of Tempranillo and Grenache grapes, matured for 14 months in oak barrels. The vinification process in a glass-box winery produces a full-bodied wine with a vibrant ruby colour. It boasts a complex bouquet of dark fruits and spices. On the palate, it displays harmonious flavours of blackberry, cherry and vanilla, complemented by smooth tannins and a lingering finish. Perfect with hearty meat dishes, Baigorri Rioja Crianza epitomises elegance and tradition of Spanish winemaking.

Tasting Notes

Intense black-cherry colour with medium-high depth of colour. Aromas of dark and stewed fruit, spices and lactic nuances. On the palate it is elegant, fresh and silky, with a long retronasal finish.

About the Winery

Baigorri

Baigorri Winery, located in Spain's prestigious Rioja Alavesa region, is a testament to the harmonious blend of nature, technology and wine craftsmanship. Founded in 2002 by Jesús Baigorri, this winery has carved a unique niche within the wine world.

The architectural superiority of Baigorri is hard to overlook; its impressive seven-storey glass construction, seated amidst the stunning vineyards, is a sight to be tied. The heart of the winery is several meters underground, designed meticulously to take advantage of gravity in the wine-making process. This process reduces damage to the grapes and ensures the wine attains maximum flavour complexity and smoothness, a characteristic trait of Baigorri wines.

Baigorri's vineyards, flourishing in calcareous clay soil, are a rich source of old vines, some of them even close to a century-old. Each vine is treated with utmost care, and the harvest is done manually, with a selective picking process that chooses only the finest grapes.

Known for its deep, powerful and highly aromatic wines, Baigorri specialises in Tempranillo, Grenache and Viura varietals. The winery has honed its wine production capacity to over half a million bottles a year, exporting to many countries across the globe.

However, Baigorri is not just a winery; it's an experience. With its delicious cuisine, designed to complement its wines, and its tours offering in-depth visits to the vineyard and barrel cellar, visitors are promised an unforgettable immersion into the world of wine.

And yet, despite its architectural marvel and technical prowess, Baigorri maintains a strong tie with the elemental simplicity of wine-making, respecting and valuing the raw materials to create something beyond the ordinary. It's a testament to the delicate balance of tradition and innovation. The pursuit of excellence at Baigorri winery, is unyielding:, it's a journey that continues with every bottle.
