Bodegas Bilbaínas was one of the first investments of the Codorníu Group outside Catalonia. A winery of archachonese architecture (brought by the Bordelais to La Rioja at the end of the 19th century after the epidemic of phylloxera in France).
It is located in the emblematic Barrio de la Estación de Haro, which was renovated a little over a decade ago. Under the Viña Pomal brand, the most classic and well-known reds and whites of the winery are produced. The vineyards are in an area where the Mediterranean and Atlantic influences converge in La Rioja, which gives their wines a unique character.
