Winemaking: Organic Tempranillo grapes were harvested by hand and de-stemmed. 48 hour maceration and fermentation with indigenous yeast in steel tanks. Bottled with no fining, filtration or added sulphur. 

This Wine: Natural red wine with a medium body. Red fruit upfront on the palate followed by darker notes of black olive, liquorice and a smokey finish. Superb value for a bottle that is perfectly suited to the Autumn months. Best served with food. Ull de Llebre is the Catalan name for the Tempranillo grape variety.

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.
