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.

Pablo Fallabrino 2022 'Estival' Blanco, Atlantida
Descorchados
Rating: 93 (5/17/2023)

A lovely wine in its fruity and floral aromas, with a hint of sweetness toward the finish that contrasts with the firm and juicy acidity that accompanies the wine all the way through the palate. It's dense and full of flavors of ripe white fruit and creamy texture. Estival's first vintage was the 2004, and it has followed a similar formula ever since. The Chardonnay was harvested very early, as if the fruit were destined for a sparkling wine, to give the wine its nerve, while the Gewürztraminer and Moscato were harvested very late to provide a creaminess and the fruitier side.
Pablo Fallabrino 2020 Arneis / Chardonnay, Atlántida
Descorchados
Rating: 92 (2/23/2021)

This is a co-fermentation of 60% Arneis (Fallabrino's family is from Piemonte, the home of this variety) and 40% Chardonnay, all from their own vineyards in Atlántida. With six months on the lees, this year the wine feels unctuous, with flavors of ripe white fruits and dried fruits. The body is dense, with floral tones, and a rich acidity that manages to balance. For fried fish.
