Fillaboa Selección Finca Monte Alto comes from the Monte Alto plot, one of Fillaboa's most emblematic plots, situated at around 150 m above sea level and covering 7 ha. Only the best grapes were selected to craft 14,000bottles. The vineyard is around 32 years old and the vines grow on a trellising structure, the soil has a sandy loam texture with a lot of pebbles due to its proximity to the Miño River.

This wine is made following the traditional method, with alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperatures. We use selected native yeasts, and we leave the wine on fine lees for 12 months in stainless steel vats. After this time the wine is stabilised, filtered and bottled.

The Masaveu family first invested in the wine sector in 1974, when they purchased Bodegas Murua, however the family’s first vineyards date back to the middle of the 19th century, precisely in Castellar del Vallés where the family originally comes from and where Federico Masaveu Rivell began a journey to be continued one century later by his descendants. Since then, Masaveu Bodegas has grown to become a benchmark in the sector, due to the quality of their winemaking in different DO´s and their sustainable philosophy and utmost respect for the land, in their estate owned vineyards, thanks to which they transmit the unique personality of each terroir in each and every bottle. This is the common denominator in each and every project initiated by Bodegas Masaveu in different parts and regions of the country: Murua (DOCa Rioja), Fillaboa (DO Rias Baixas), Pagos de Araiz (DO Navarra), Leda (Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León) and Valverán (Asturias).
