Translated as "land of the abundant harvest," the winery’s name stems from the 15th century when the current vineyard site was farmed by monks from the nearby Scala Dei monastery. Winemaker Jesus del Rio, whose family has cultivated land in the region since the 1300s, manages this property in the heart of Montsant with help from his wife, Marta.

The majority of the estate is devoted to the Garnacha grape variety that del Rio’s family has grown for generations. A self-trained viticulturalist, he planted over 7,000 Garnacha and 6,000 Cabernet Sauvignon vines himself, fueled by his belief that these varieties would express the true terroir of his land.

He bottled his first flagship wine, named for the winery "Mas de l’Abundancia," in 2002. His second label, Fluminis, Latin for "del Rio," or "of the river" begins with 15% barrel-aged wine from the previous vintage, and 85% new wine divided into two lots: half remains in tank and half undergoes malolactic fermentation in new French oak. The three lots then evolve in stainless steel tanks for up to six months, before Jesus creates the final blend:
