Culture The culture in Uras is "Sardinian culture," still mostly untouched as it is a village away from the tourist spots and deeply focused on agricultural life. In Uras, you can still feel the quiet and beautiful sense of community that villages once had. Uras is surrounded by the countryside, and this shapes their culture as winemakers, farmers, foragers, and many other aspects related to life in the countryside. Their food is simple and full of love, using mostly organic ingredients. In Uras, most people speak Sardinian and Italian.Marta Lambert - treasures of Sardinia
Produce Wine in Uras is also an annual tradition where families get together at the end of the growing season (mostly in September) and help with the picking of the grapes and the whole process related to the making of the wine. Families will share lunches for days in a row and spend days together celebrating the harvest. Then the whole process will continue indoors with skilled people that have experience with handling and storing it correctly.Marta Lambert - Treasures Of Sardinia
Another produce that is produced in the families of this village is organic olive oil. In the countryside, there are many olive trees, and families keep preferring their organic produce over the industrialization of this product.
