About the Name: Tempranillo is referred to as Ull de Llebre in Catalunya, which means "eye of the hare." Funny enough, Massimo of Partida Creus has eyes but no hair. He and his partner Antonella (yes, they’re Italian) have been making wine in the Baix Penedès region for about 20 years, focusing on native grape varieties and natural wine made without additives of any kind. Put bluntly, they put the ability in drinkability.
The Liter Bottle: The one liter bottle holds 33% more wine than the average 750ml, which means 2 more glasses of wine per bottle!
