From organically tended vineyards, made with the utmost of care - this unoaked Tempranillo is brilliant in the glass and on the nose! Intense aromas of red and black fruits, tangy acidity and a fresh finish, despite the full-bodied nature of the wine. There's plenty going on here, and it's easy to be drawn back for a second glass. Soft tannins complete the picture for a beautifully balanced wine.

Biurko is a Basque word that means “place of two waters”, and is the name of an area in the town-land formed by two hillsides and a valley. The name suggests that at some time in the past two streams flowed here. The Llorens family, who own this lovely winery, committed itself to a long-term project where they would process and market the grapes from their own vineyards by combining the best in state-of-the-art technology and tradition to obtain high-quality wines. The winery was built in 1992 and is located in Bargota, a small village that lies at the base of the Sierra de Cantabria, at an altitude of a 600 metres. The winery, surrounded by family vineyards and olive groves, was built on a hill overlooking the local countryside and offers excellent views of the surrounding area. The philosophy at Biurko is based on combining the cultivation of its grapevines through traditional natural agricultural methods and modern technology. This enables the winery to produce select quality wines whilst maintaining the characteristics of the local grape varieties.The style is modern, fruity and balanced, and whilst already impressive, is definitely on the rise.
