Bodega Claroscuro is a family-owned winery founded by Gustavo and Paula Cucchiara in Mendoza in 2010–2011, and operated as a winery-gallery. The estate cultivates Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Pinot Noir, along with an unspecified white-grape parcel. Its wines are labelled “Sustainable,” with vineyards drip-irrigated using snowmelt stored in a dam; no formal certifications are cited. Winemaking is led by head oenologist Diego Barrera, with contributions from Paula Cucchiara, Stephen Koek-Koek and Marisa Becerra. The brand is also part of the Allied Vintners International portfolio.
