Bodega Chacra
Chacra was founded in 2003 by Piero Incisa della Rocchetta.
At a wine tasting in New York City, Piero discovered a pinot noir that brought his attention to the Río Negro region of Patagonia, Argentina.
After his first visit, he knew this would be the home of his new passion.
The quest for a unique terroir was over: with ungrafted vines dating back to 1932, planted by massale selection, with grapes of immense quality, vibrant luminosity, pure water, strong winds, Mainqué village in Rio Negro had the potential to make the wines of which he dreamed. Here, Piero could make wines that could truly convey the taste of “a place on the planet.”
Later, what began as a conversation between friends, has turned into a partnership with esteemed Burgundian Chardonnay producer Jean-Marc Roulot. Joining Piero in Patagonia, Jean-Marc offers his extensive expertise in planting, farming, and vinification of Chardonnay at Chacra. This newest chapter in Chacra’s story is more than just an expansion of a winery or the production of new wines, it is a story of a friendship.
