Pedro Parra

Pedro Parra y Familia Wines is a project that was created by a man that is very serious about ‘Terroir’. Pedro has a master’s degree in precision agriculture and earned a Ph.D. for his work with terroir from the Paris Center of Agriculture.

Parra had dreamt about making his own wine for many years whilst working as a Terroir Consultant, but it is not until 2013 he released his first commercial vintage. Making wines from the Itata region, Southern Chile, with old vine Cinsault and Pais planted on the granitic soils of the Coastal mountain range. Pedro is a true passionate of this area, in which he calls home, and is extremely grateful of the absence of industrialised wineries, other popular grape varieties and forced irrigation, growing high yielding vineyards.

As a consultant, Pedro Parra works with some major players of the wine world, that include Comando G (Gredos), Jean-Marc Roulot (Meursault), Liger Belair (Vosne-Romanee), Marco Marengo (Barolo), Altos las Hormigas (Mendoza) and Chapter 24 (Oregon) to name a few.
