Meet the Chiappella Family

The Chiappella family has a rich history in Uruguay, having immigrated from Italy’s Piemonte region in 1926. In 1959, they established their winery in Cuchilla de Rocha, located in the heart of Canelones. Jesus Chiappella took the reins in 1988, modernizing the winery by incorporating advanced techniques and cultivating international grape varieties. Their commitment to quality has allowed them to export wines to countries such as Russia, the USA, and Mexico. With a blend of traditional methods and modern technology, they produce wines that reflect their dedication. Aging in American and French oak barrels enhances the wines' balanced flavors and aromatic profiles, while much of the bottling and packaging is done by hand.
