We use old vines, as we consider that they produce balanced flavors, since the greater depth of their roots and the larger volume of soil explored by them, reduce the effects of both drought and excessive rainfall. They also bring greater complexity to the grapes and in turn to the wine.

We use three grape varieties: Tempranillo, Graciano and Grenache. TEMPRANILLO has the potential to produce, on its own, wines of the highest rank in our area. It combines power and elegance and has an enormous range of aromas and flavours.

GRACIANO is difficult to grow, has a very low pH, produces wines of deep colour with purple glints, fresh, spicy aromas, and blends very well with Tempranillo.

We grow GRENACHE in the southernmost area of the Rioja in gravel soils at the highest altitudes, and we use it to blend with the other varieties.

Respect for the natural environment is an obsession in our vine-growing. Grass usually grows freely from October until April and the vineyard borders are maintained with indigenous flora throughout the year to enable beneficial insects to complete their life cycle. Fertilizing is kept down to a minimum, most of which comes in the form of manure. Fungal sprays are essentially in the form of sulphur and copper, avoiding where possible synthetic chemical products.

Roda I 2004 won a gold medal in the International Wine Challenge 2009, one of the most prestigious independent competition wine in the world.

Roda wines have their own style: The predominant aromas come from the vineyard: red berry fruit or black fruit are always present. Oak, in the background, almost imperceptible. Sweet spices and mineral notes, bringing complexity. Balsamic touches, giving freshness. The palate is where their great class shows through. Full, ample, with definition.
Savoury, fresh fruit flavour, long. With sweet, softly integrated tannins.
A sensation of volume and freshness. Wines that incite you to have another sip. Absolute respect for the vintage: down to the last drop of wine in each bottle, the vintage is exactly what is indicated on the label.

Roda is committed to offering the best possible wine that the climatic vintage has been capable of creating in our vineyards. The complex system of different vineyard plots enables us to offer excellent wines every time.
Wines that give pleasure, wines that transmit sensations.
