Bodega Villa Natalia is located in La Capilla on the left bank of the Ica river. Its history dates back to early twentieth century, when Señora Nicolasa was helping the family income by growing beans and grapes for sale in Lima. At that time she also started the family tradition of producing pisco for festivities and celebrations. Later, her daughter Natalia, whose name the Bodega has inherited, continued the tradition of making pisco for family and friends. After a pause of several years, the third and fourth generation of the Nicolasa family started producing pisco for commercial sale under the brand name De Carral. Currently Jose Chomon Salgado – a fourth generation family member - is the distiller at Villa Natalia. Jose is widely acclaimed for the quality of the pisco produced here and is in demand as one of Peru’s premium pisco judges. In keeping with four generations of family tradition, Villa Natalia use small batch artisan methods built on traditions from from past generations.

Tasting note: Fresh and floral but understated, offering distant grape / pomace and beeswax notes. Mildly astringent with a creamy entry and a sprinkling of pepper. Fruit'n'nut chocolate flavours, rounding off dry and fleeting. Enchanting for its delicacy. 42% Alc./Vol.
