Haro is proud of its tradition of making top-flight wines in Rioja. But, not so uptight that they can’t cut loose with a fun-loving Wine Battle.
Pinchos are like tapas, little snacks served on small plates. Often, these Pinchos are on display at the counter. Point and you’ll be served in seconds. Or, order from the menu on the wall and the kitchen will whip up your order.
Oftentimes, a Pincho bar (called Pintxo in the nearby Basque region) will have a specialty. Ask the person behind the bar or just take a look around. If everyone has the same dish, you can be sure that’s what the place is known for.
Haro is a small town (just over 10,000 people) and the best concentration of Pincho bars is the the Herradura quarter between Santo Tomas Plaza and La Paz Plaza.
