Producer Profile
Bodega Murga
The winemaking endeavor, known as 'Joyas de Murga,' originated from a conversation between friends Alberto and Arturo, both fervent enthusiasts of wine and pisco. Alberto Di Laura, affectionately known as ""El Caballero del Pisco,"" revered for his mastery as a pisco distiller, prioritizes grape quality, emphasizing that ""distillation commences in the vineyards."" The decision to produce chemical-free wines was made in 2017, with Pietra Possamai, a talented Brazilian winemaker, spearheading the winemaking process.
What distinguishes this winemaker is their steadfast dedication to tradition, sustainability, and excellence.
