Big Tannins. Heavy wine. Not for the faint. — 7 years ago
Strong nose, full body, drinks nice now.

This white Rioja wine - Viura and “other varieties” - shows a pale golden tint in the glass. The nose is beautiful. Citrus and tropical fruit abound, with a stony minerality laced into the fruit. On the palate, the acidity is extremely refreshing and the flavors of tangerines and lemons are again presented in mineral fashion. The finish is lengthy and the tropical fruit seems to last the longest. — 8 years ago
The fruit is so bright and vibrant - clear clean fruit, nothing jammy or sticky. But balanced. Not dusty but a bit funky. I know there's oak but it's not in my face. This wine is artful yet precise. A delight. #rioja #haro #spain #tempranillo #dogsofdelectable — 9 years ago

From the Haro-Lumia Tasters Dozen. Faint notes of cherry are evident, but secondary flavors dominate this medium-bodied wine. While lighter on the palate, it is full of forest floor, mushroom, and tobacco flavors. The finish is long and ends with a hint of menthol. Just a beautiful, seductive wine that will only get better over the next 10 years. A WS Top 100. — 8 years ago
Sorry for being AWOL. But I bring tidings of great joy. The 2014 is out! (So is Bogle Phantom. More later! I just kiss on the first date!) I love Le Fiacre du Pape. Hands down one of the best values -- and most under the radar -- wines on the market. Brought to me many vintages ago by Señor Haro, a formidable presence in the wine world. The 2014 has great fruit, with a nice meaty backdrop. Lots of bacon fat and mushroom. Awesome. Unlike past years a bit tannic. Needs to breathe! Always one to have on hand. — 8 years ago
For 3 euros a bottle, this is a beautiful wine. Not too light but definitely a daily drinkable wine with or without food. — 9 years ago
