The third edition of HARO STATION WINE EXPERIENCE, the most exclusive and gourmet, closes its doors after a successful first day. Around 3,500 people -between the public and the press- have enjoyed a journey through Spanish wine growing history of Spain. The wines of GÓMEZ CRUZADO HONORABLE 2014 and PANCRUDO 2016 have been paired with the vegetable cuisine of the Michelin star Ignacio Echapresto, chef of VENTA MONCALVILLO. Riojan illustrator Javier Jubera has created an original piece of artwork, installed at the Gómez Cruzado winery, that pays tribute to vintners and the “human landscape” of wine.
The GÓMEZ CRUZADO'S winery in Haro’s Barrio de la Estación has launched the 2015 vintage of CERRO LAS CUEVAS TERROIR SELECTION on the market. This wine embodies an old vineyard near the town of Leza in the foothills of the Sierra Cantabria in Rioja Alavesa. The village of Leza is one of the places in Rioja DOCa where the most time passes between the beginning of veraison and harvest, which is indicative of the grapes’ slow maturation in this area
Gómez Cruzado is debuting the 2016 vintage of its PANCRUDO TERROIR SELECTION. This wine is an expression of Grenache grown in a cold mountainous area in the Upper Najerilla Valley of Rioja DOCa. Grown in a traditionally claret region, this Grenache exhibits a unique, delicate and subtle character. The potential of this area to produce red wine with finesse, minerality, acidity and fruitiness has been recently rediscovered. Wine critic and writer Oz Clarke declares PANCRUDO one of the best Grenache wines in the world in his recent article on the best wines of this variety published in the British magazine DECANTER.
