The wine
Rioja Alta, Haro's winery, raises the bar and incorporates the new Viña Arana to its line of Great Reserve.
With an own style, an extraordinary aging capacity and a coupage of tempranillo (95%) and graceful of vines of more than 40 years planted on limestone soils, only 267 American oak barrels are made with a use of 4 years where it has aged for 36 months and a year and a half in the bottle. It will be made only in crops of extraordinary quality.
It is a classic-style Rioja but adapted to new trends looking for wines with more fruit, more vibrant and fresher.
