AboutBodega Hacienda López de Haro
Hacienda López de Haro stands on a hill outside San Vicente de la Sonsierra, surrounded by Rioja Alta vineyards and sheltered by the Cantabria and Toloño ranges. Tempranillo grows here on well-drained clay-limestone soils, with winter rain and winds channelled along the Ebro Valley. Grape selection and ageing in wood are central to the winery’s approach.
El Pacto 2021 Rioja
Spanish Red
Forest fruits, liquorice, undergrowth, spice and chocolate shape the profile. The palate is full and balanced while remaining fine and fresh; fruit and barrel notes return in the aftertaste. Tempranillo comes from organic vineyards more than seventy years old in Rioja's Sonsierra. Fermentation was spontaneous with native yeasts, followed by two weeks of maceration and fourteen months in French, Eastern European and American oak.
Hacienda López de Haro 2017 Rioja Reserva
Spanish Red
Ripe cherry and dark berries lead, with cedar, tobacco and warm baking spice adding mature savoury depth. The palate is dry and robust, balancing concentrated fruit with fresh acidity and firm, polished tannins. Earth and vanilla gather through the persistent finish, making it a natural match for lamb, braised beef, grilled mushrooms or aged Manchego.
