Lurra

Navarra Garnacha with critical recognition across major wine publications.

Lurra produces wine in Navarra, Spain's dynamic northeastern region known for its continental climate and diverse terroir. The winery focuses on Garnacha, the ancient red variety that thrives across the Iberian Peninsula. Garnacha demands careful viticulture—it ripens late and requires warm sites to achieve full phenolic maturity—yet rewards precision with wines of dark fruit intensity and supple tannin structure. Lurra's Garnacha has drawn assessment from major critics including Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Falstaff, reflecting the wine's standing within the region's quality conversation. Navarra itself has emerged as a serious alternative to its more celebrated neighbor Rioja, offering similar elevation and seasonal variation but with its own distinct character. The region's Garnacha-based wines tend toward freshness and minerality, anchored by the cool nights that preserve acidity.
