The wines from the wine group Masaveu Wineries, specifically the wines produced in the wineries of Fillaboa (Rías Baixas), Murua (DOCa. Rioja), and the ice cider created in Llagar Valverán (Asturias), have been highly awarded in the latest edition of the Gilbert & Gaillard Competition. In fact, the Albariño Fillaboa Selección Finca Monte Alto 2019 has obtained the highest score among the 64 Spanish dry white wines presented, resulting in the highest-rated wine.
Fillaboa Selección Finca Monte Alto 2019, Valverán 2019, Murua Reserva 2015, and Fillaboa 2021 achieved high scores of 95, 94, 93, and 93 points respectively, all earning Double Gold Medals. In addition, the wine group also received two Gold Medals and one Silver Medal for the wines produced at their Navarre winery located in Olite/Erriberri, Pagos de Araiz.
Masaveu Wineries
The Masaveu family began investing in the wine sector in 1974, when it established Murua Wineries in the DOCa. Rioja, but the family’s vineyard plantations date back to the mid-19th century, specifically in Castellar del Vallés, where the family originates and where Federico Masaveu Rivell began the steps that his descendants would continue a century later.
Since then, Masaveu Wineries has grown to become a benchmark for the quality of its wines across different Designations of Origin and for its environmental philosophy and deep respect for the land. The winery owns its own vineyards, which allow it to express the unique personality of each terroir in every bottle. In this way, all the projects undertaken by Masaveu Wineries across different regions share a common purpose: Fillaboa (D.O. Rías Baixas), Leda (Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León), Murua (D.O.Ca. Rioja), Pagos de Araiz (D.O. Navarra), and Valverán (Asturias).
