Winemaking: Organic white grapes were harvested by hand and de-stemmed. 5 day maceration and fermentation with indigenous yeast in fibreglass tanks. Bottled with no fining, filtration or added sulphur. 

This Wine: Natural skin contact wine with a light to medium body. Imagine yellow as a flavour and this is exactly it. I like to think the name came after the taste. Either that or I'm just easily led. Golden kiwi, pineapple, ripe lemon, melon. So drinkable and so fun. Comes in a litre bottle, superb value. Share it with friends!

Notes on the Winemaker: Larural is the project of two brothers, Xavi and Andreu in the Tarragona province of Catalonia. The took over their relatively large family estate of 32 hectares and everything has been farmed organically since 2015. They sell some grapes to local winemakers and produce their own cuvées using native grape varieties and without the addition of sulphur. Honest and expressive wines that offer great value for money.
