Bodega Roda
Bodega Roda is located on the Ebro River, near the small town of Haro. The company was founded in 1987 and considers itself part of a new wave of winemakers who started this profession in the 80s.
Mario Rotllant and Carmen Daurella were part of this movement when they built Roda. The manor was built on a calado, a stone tunnel. At the time of the phylloxera plague, the French "discovered" that Spain was largely spared from the parasite and had their wines produced there.
The barrels were stored in the calados before being transported to France to keep them cool and dark. Roda's team planned the building carefully, so that after construction began it took 10 years for the last stone to be in place.
