Oller del Mas

Nestled in the Pla de Bages, a wine region of Catalonia, Spain, Oller del Mas is part of a privileged landscape. The winemaking tradition in the Pla de Bages is ancient, with some historians even suggesting that the toponym "Bages" finds its roots in Bacchus, the Roman God of wine. The Margenat family, custodians of a thousand-year-old legacy, cherish it with devotion and labor with unwavering passion to merge it harmoniously with the modernity of our times. Their dedication is anchored in a commitment to crafting wines of exceptional quality and excellence, with profound sense of family, and deep respect for the environment. These wines are a manifestation of the very best grapes, exclusively sourced from their estate's vineyards. With limited production, they are a true expression of terroir and a distinctive identity. These are not merely wines; they are Château wines that breathe the echoes of history and radiate the essence of depth and mastery.
