Region: Nulles, Tarragona, Catalonia, Spain (Vino de la Tierra)
Grapes: 100% Garnacha (Garnaxta)
Body: Light to medium
Notes: Bright and earthy. Wild red cherry, dried strawberry, garrigue, iron, and a fresh, mineral finish with fine dusty tannins. Old-vine Garnacha from the Catalan heartland — honest and alive.
Pairing: Grilled lamb, butifarra sausage, roasted vegetables, aged Manchego, or simple tapas with good company.
Tanca els Ulls — Catalan for "close your eyes" — is produced by a young, passionate winemaker at a small family cellar in Nulles, in the Alt Camp comarca of Tarragona. The name is an invitation: close your eyes, stop thinking, and just drink. The Garnaxta is sourced from old recovered vineyard plots in the area, farmed organically and harvested by hand, with native yeast fermentation and minimal intervention in the cellar. Garnacha thrives on the hot, stony soils of inland Catalonia, and in the hands of producers like Cesc at Tanca els Ulls — who brings both technical knowledge and deep love for the land — it produces wines of real character and soul at a fraction of the price of more famous Spanish appellations. A gem of a discovery.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
