Pisano RPF Albariño is a structured and expressive Albariño with vibrant citrus notes, white pepper complexity, and a savoury mineral edge balanced by crisp acidity. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with grilled, smoked, and raw fish, sashimi, ceviche, gravlax, carpaccio, and tartare all shine alongside it. It's equally at home with fresh pears and peaches, apple tarts, sweet preserves, and sheep or goat cheeses, making it an excellent choice for diverse dining occasions.

About the Producer

Pisano Family Wines is nestled in Progreso, 45 minutes uphill from Montevideo, some 20km from the broadest point of the Rio del Plata estuary before it meets the chill of the South Atlantic. The Pisano family share an Italian and Basque heritage and this family-run estate traces its roots back to 1914, when Italian immigrant, Don Césare Secundino Pisano, moved to Progreso and planted vineyards there. Today, the fourth generation of Pisano’s, brothers Daniel, Eduardo, and Gustavo, keep tradition alive.

First and foremost, Pisano is a family winery and each brother brings his own passion: Eduardo manages vineyard care with artisanal precision; Gustavo oversees the cellar and blending; and Daniel, the family's charismatic spokesperson, drives exports to far‑flung places, even to Antarctica, bringing Uruguay into the global wine conversation.

The Pisano family are fiercely proud of Tannat, Uruguay’s flagship grape. They balance tradition with experimentation, selecting clones, adjusting yields, and refining techniques to capture both the grape’s depth and the land’s character. Vine care is personal: canopy management, selective hand‑harvesting, and patiently waiting for perfect ripeness are part of their artisanal process. Their mission? To craft wines that are not merely good, but distinctly expressive, shaped by a century‑old Italian‑Basque heritage, and delivered with unmistakable Uruguayan soul.

Vineyard and Winery

Grown on clay, calcareous soil. Hand harvested and fermented and aged in 500-litre barrels without malolactic conversion, it retains clarity and tension, while lees contact brings weight and depth. A precise, site-driven wine with a firm, persistent finish.
