About PEDRO PARRA Y FAMILIA

After 15 years of travelling around the world as a terroir consultant, Pedro decided it was time to make wines that he likes to drink and to create a legacy for his family. He wanted to make pure terroir driven wines from granitic soils in and around his home of Concepción in the Itata Valley, South Central Chile. He is a leader in the ‘New Chile’ wine movement making wine in areas that were previously considered too extreme to make premium wine.
