The winery

Mas Talaïa

Estate founded in 2019 by Lucie Zanella, Fabrice Rieu and Alexandre Rieu in Rodès (Pyrénées-Orientales), between the villages of Montalba-le-Château and Tarerach, close to the Orgues d’Ille-sur-Têt. They farm high-altitude vines, at around 500 metres, on granite and decomposed granite. The starting idea is that Roussillon’s best plots are up high, where the cool of the night lingers. They look for fresh, mineral wines with a restrained profile.
