Mas Guallar, founded by Chilean winemaker Camila Opazo in 2019, is a boutique winery located in Tautavel in the Pyrénées-Orientales. Camila’s journey began at 18 when she moved to Bordeaux and fell in love with winemaking during an internship at a Grand Cru in Pessac-Léognan. Her studies in oenology, with a specialization in sparkling wine, took her to Spain, where she embraced organic and biodynamic farming. After gaining hands-on experience in vineyards across Chile, New Zealand, Spain, and France, she was drawn to the unique terroirs of the Pyrénées-Orientales, where she established Mas Guallar.
The winery produces natural, artisanal wines that reflect the diversity of its two vineyard sites: 1.7 hectares in Maury and 3.3 hectares in Banyuls-sur-Mer. With a philosophy rooted in biodiversity and minimal intervention, Camila uses organic practices tailored to each site’s unique needs. In the cellar, vinification and aging take place in old oak barrels, allowing the wines to evolve without chemical additives. Each bottle is a testament to her craft, featuring her artwork inspired by the vines. Camila’s thoughtful approach results in expressive parcel wines that highlight the contrasting terroirs of the amphitheater between the Corbières and the Pyrenees.
