Bodega Pablo Fallabrino is located 4 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean in Atlántida, Uruguay. Atlántida is a subregion of Canelones--the biggest and most important wine region in the country. Pablo Fallabrino, a laid back surfer, is the owner and winemaker of Bodega Pablo Fallabrino and he lives on the estate. His grandfather Angelo Fallabrino immigrated to Uruguay in 1920 from Piedmont and planted 5 vineyards and started 2 wineries in the 1930’s. Pablo studied with both his father and grandfather and eventually started his current estate in 1997 where 12 of the 30 hectares are under vine. Producing mostly Piedmont grape varieties in addition to Tannat, the wines typically show an Old World, nuanced style which we tend to gravitate towards. Pablo's approach is not to overthink the winemaking; he goes with his instincts, takes chances, and makes extraordinary wines with his own personal signature.
