With a pronounced flavour that belies its light character, the native, local Montònega varietal is perfect for making outstanding, fresh and balanced wines.

Grown at a high elevation 500+ meters on clay/limestone soils, the Ancestral Method is dependent on the grapes' natural sugars. Maceration for 8 hours at 15ºC., further fermentation and maceration at low temperatures and ageing in stainless steel.

Mascorrubí exemplifies a return to traditional winemaking.
