Ram N Bilbao Verdejo

Perfect for Springtime weather, Ramón Bilbao Verdejo is a fresh, clean, and bright white wine with a distinct fruit and herbal character. Produced from 100% Verdejo grapes harvested in 2022, this wine is from Spain’s Rueda D.O., where the altitude (over 700 meters) and continental climate (very hot summers and very cold winters) creates the perfect condition for growing Verdejo grapes, ensuring the freshness of the wine’s aromas. Ramón Bilbao Verdejo pairs perfectly with cold dishes such as creams, steamed vegetables, salads, cream cheeses, and white meats.

The head winemaker for Ramon Bilbao’s Rueda winery is Sara Bañuelos, who grew up in Spain’s Rioja region surrounded by the best wines in the world. She studied agricultural engineering and earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Oenology at the University of La Rioja before working her way through different wineries in Spain, and eventually to Ramón Bilboa. Her favorite wine pairing? “A mushroom and truffle risotto with a full-bodied white,” she says.
