Tasting Notes

Chacra represents the visionary creation of Piero Incisa della Rochetta, the heir to Tuscany's renowned Sassicaia Vineyard. His passion led him to the arid and remote Rio Negro region of Argentina, where he founded Bodega Chacra. Barda, a robust yet elegant expression of Pinot Noir, offers a distinct Argentinian flair. This Pinot Noir is a revelation; bright, crisp, and brimming with energy.

Reviews and Accolades

AWARDS & ACCOLADES

James Suckling

Plenty of orange peel and pomegranate to the dark strawberry and raspberry aromas. Medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit and fine tannins, which come together nicely and energetically at the finish.

Robert Parker

Barda has moderate ripeness and alcohol (12.5%) while retaining very good freshness. After fermenting with some 15% full clusters in concrete with indigenous yeasts, 60% of the volume matured in French oak barrels (10% of them new), usually the more structured lots, while the rest was kept in concrete (the lighter lots) to keep the freshness and crunchiness of Pinot Noir. It was conceived as an easy-to-drink wine from their younger vines, but it has more depth than just that and it's quite versatile with food.

Chacra

hacra, founded in 2004 by Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, the proprietor of Sassicaia, Italy's most esteemed wine, was born with a profound mission—to unveil the purest essence of Mainqué's climate, microclimate, and terroir in Patagonia's Río Negro region. Committed to environmental responsibility, Chacra unwaveringly practices biodynamic and organic principles, dedicating its endeavors to crafting wines that exemplify transparency, purity, delicacy, and a marked minerality. In the heart of Patagonia, a "chacra" signifies a sacred piece of land devoted to pomology, holding the vital energy that binds us to the vast universe, teeming with life. Just as it nurtures and harmonizes with each meal, wine serves as the companion to pleasure and sensibility. Wine is an intimate art that envelops all our senses. Chacra's purpose is to elevate and deepen this profound connection.
