Getting to know López de Haro
The visit begins in the vineyard next to the winery, where the characteristics of the environment and the cycles of the vineyard are explained. From there, we will go inside the winery, first to take a tour of its history and then to visit the winemaking area. We will taste different wines from the tanks and finish on the terrace or in the wine cellar enjoying different glasses of wine.
Sobre la bodega
Hacienda López de Haro is located on a hill in the historic town of San Vicente de la Sonsierra, surrounded by centuries-old vineyards and sheltered by the Sierra del Toloño. There, thanks to its special climatic characteristics, its orography and its soils, are the best old Tempranillo vineyards with wich the new Rioja classics are made.
Hacienda López de Haro is the Rioja winery of the Vintae Wine Company and its flagship is the collection of wines with which they pay homage to the authentic essence of their land, Rioja. The place chosen to bring this project to life and to settle the winery could be none other than San Vicente de la Sonsierra, the heart of La Rioja Alta and the area where the best old Tempranillo vineyards are located, thanks to its special climatic characteristics, its orography and its soils.
López de Haro wines are elegant, complex and aromatic and have become the new classics of Rioja. Because, according to the winery, to be a classic it is not necessary to be hundreds of years old, nor come from high lineage, but rather to breathe the magic of something well done, made with care and passion.
