Consortium

We are a group of family companies that produce Pisco that, based on history, defend the quality of Pisco by prioritizing traditional or artisanal methods. To this end, we combine our strengths and experiences with the objective of positioning our products in the international spirituous beverages market.

History and Value Proposition

After years of independent efforts and competing in the local market with large companies for the production, import and marketing of alcoholic beverages, in 2019, more than 20 Pisco producing companies were shortlisted and summoned by PROMPERU to form an Export Consortium. After outlining the basic aspects of formation, the Consortium was made up of 8 companies committed to the same purpose: Bodegas y Viñedos Casas SAC, Grupo Moquillaza SAC, Bodega y Destilería el Molino SAC, Inversiones Sotomayor Velásquez SAC, Monte Grande EIRL, Villa Natalia 1903 SAC, Vinícola Victoria de los Sánchez SAC and Vitivinícola La Pampa SAC.

The Consortium’s mission is to enhance, build and develop the category of piscos produced using artisanal or traditional methods in the domestic and international markets.

We offer pisco produced by family businesses, with a production process mainly manual and focused on achieving the best quality. We use selected pisquera grapes, always grown in the eographical area of the winery. Pisco is produced and bottled in its place of origin.

Our purpose is to contribute to the development of Peruvian families dedicated directly and indirectly to the Pisco’s production.

Production Process

Cultivation

Pisco has a single input, and that is the pisquera grape. The production process begins in the cultivation, in the vineyard. The annual campaign begins with pruning, to continue with the growth stages of the vine: buds, flowering, fruit set, development, veraison and maturity, During these stages, it will be essential to carry out the care and control tasks until the vintage.

Vintage

Once the grapes reach maturity, they are ready to be vintaged (or harvested). At this stage it is important to measure the sweetness and acidity indicators that guarantee the optimum state for the vintage. In our case this process is manual, with expert winemakers who master their work.

Transport

These harvested grapes are placed in harvest javas of about 20 to 25 kg. capacity for their transfer to the winery. This allows for proper handling so that the grapes arrive in perfect condition at the winery.

Destemming / Crushing

Process where the berries are squeezed to obtain the grape must. In some cases the traditional grape treading is still used.

Maceration

It is carried out in the lagar, where the must rests together with the grape skins, allowing the extraction of the aromatic substances typical of pisquera grapes.

Devatting / Press

Once the maceration is completed, the solid elements (skins, pulp and seeds) are separated. These elements are placed inside the manual press to obtain kindly the pressing juice.

Fermentation

Once the clean must is obtained, it is transferred to the fermentation tanks. This is where the natural sugar contained in the must is transformed into alcohol by the action of the yeasts. This process is known as fermentation or vinification, and can take several days depending on the degree of sweetness of the grapes, the variety and the temperature conditions. At this stage, the greatest amount of aromas are produced that will later be appreciated in Pisco.

Distillation

This recently fermented must is loaded into the still or falca to be distilled. Distillation consists of heating the must in order to evaporate the alcohol produced during fermentation. Subsequently, condensation takes place and finally Pisco is obtained, which is obtained by degree, that is to say, the resulting distillate is obtained directly at the final alcohol content established by the DO regulations, between 38 and 48 Gay Lussac.

Repose

Once the Pisco is obtained, it is aged for a minimum of three months, according to the regulations. Many of our products are aged for more than a year to achieve a better assembled, integrated and harmonious Pisco.

Bottling

After resting, the Pisco is filtered and bottled for its subsequent commercialization.
