The Story
Pedro Parra, a famous terroir expert in Chile, started his own wine label of Pedro Parra Y Familia after about 15 years of being a wine consultant. He travelled all over the world and understood different styles and cultures of winemaking, before he went on to start his own label in the little-known places of Chile – Itata and Bio Bio.
Elegant and perfumed with plush red fruit and herbal characters. Juicy on the palate with soft tannins and vibrant acidity.
96 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Hailing from complex soils defined by a mixture of iron, quartz, sand and silt, the 2022 Trane is the most aromatically spectacular wine in the Parra lineup, opening with an alluring, complex perfume of licorice, orange peels, roses and dark fruits. Similarly, the palate is the most sumptuous and concentrated, ratcheting up the density and saturation while sacrificing none of the silky precision that defines the house style. This power is echoed on the finish with an expansive, sweet intensity that swells in lockstep with a simmering mineral undercurrent, concluding with a retronasal perfume first observed on the nose. This is certainly the flashiest, most seductive wine in the stable, and I suspect it will evolve beautifully in the cellar.
