Lurra Garnacha Friuli-Venezia rocky clay and limestone soilsLurra or "terroir" in Basque comes from the appellation of Navarra in the heart of the Basque Country and sheep country hence the label! The garnacha sees no oak aging and is simply fermented in stainless steel so that it is a pure expression of its terroir. The wine is fresh and lively with a great concentration of blackberries and ripe plums along with some subtle earth and spice characteristics.
