The history of Bodega Chacra is a fascinating one. The winery was founded in 2004 by Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, who is also the owner of the famous Tenuta San Guido winery in Tuscany, Italy. Piero fell in love with the Rio Negro region of Argentina and decided to start a winery there. He was drawn to the region's unique terroir, which is characterised by its cool climate, high altitude, and sandy soils.
The Mainque vineyard, where the grapes for this Chardonnay are grown, is located in the heart of the Rio Negro valley. The vineyard is situated at an altitude of 820 metres above sea level, which gives the grapes a unique flavour profile. The vines are planted in sandy soils, which are rich in minerals and nutrients, and the cool climate of the region ensures that the grapes ripen slowly and evenly.
