Hacienda Lopez de Haro is located in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, in the heart of Rioja Alta, one of Spain’s most renowned wine regions. The estate combines traditional viticulture with modern techniques, cultivating Tempranillo and other classic Rioja varieties in vineyards that benefit from excellent sun exposure, well-draining soils, and careful selection of grapes at harvest.
Tasting Notes:
Bright ruby red in the glass, this Crianza offers a nose of red cherry, plum, and subtle spice, with gentle hints of vanilla and toasted oak from careful barrel aging.

The finish is elegant and harmonious, showcasing the classic Rioja style in half bottle format.

Grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted before fermentation. The wine undergoes maturation in French and American oak barrels, allowing the development of refined spice and subtle oak notes while preserving freshness and varietal character.
Food Pairing:
Ideal with grilled meats, roasted poultry, or a selection of hard cheeses. Its approachable style and balanced structure make it an excellent introduction to Rioja wines.
