Mas Rodó
Montonega
MAS RODÓ is a pioneer in working with the Montonega variety, an autochthonous grape that develops spontaneously from Parellada strains, generating a distinct phenotype with character. The Montonega is a small, scarcely planted and reddish grape that spontaneously produces around 4500kg per hectare, and with which we produce a frank, fresh and unique wine. The remarkable thing about this wine is not the fruit but the aromatic herbs, the fennel, the dried fruit, and a particular minerality and salinity, all defining elements of the environment at MAS RODÓ. We keep it a year in the bottle, refining it and balancing its acidity. It’s a true declaration of our principles connected to the land and our way of understanding wine.
