Tasting Note

Intense red-berry fruit with great complexity and harmony and hints of black olives. Silky and unctuous attack and elegant and persistent on the palate.

Product Notes

Baigorri Rioja Belus wine is a distinctively delightful Spanish red, hailing from the famed Rioja region. Possessing a rich, dark ruby hue, it evokes a distinctive blend of bold, ripe fruits, like blackberries and plums, underscored by a subtle hint of spice. Its elegant tannins and savoury notes prove immensely satisfying on the palate. An expertly balanced ageing in French oak barrels bestows it with notable depth and complexity. Overall, this harmonious, full-bodied Tempranillo is a testament to the mastery of Baigorri winemakers - a wine that equally satisfies both as a standalone experience and a companion to robust meat dishes.

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.
