About the Winery

Birichino

Established in downtown Santa Cruz in 2008, Birichino Winery is a Californian wine blending wizard. Founded by lifelong friends and wine industry veterans, Alex Krause and John Locke, the winery is renowned for its compelling and subtly dynamic wines.

The creative pair craft their wines from vineyards of a certain charm and character, many of which were planted by the Italian immigrants to California’s shores. Working with a diverse array of grape varieties, mainly from century-old vineyards, offers impressive versatility.

Crafted with grapes that aren't subjected to over-ripening or excessive oak, Birichino wines exhibit a delightful freshness and finesse. The selection includes a diverse variety of wines, from still to sparkling and dessert wines. Their selection includes a classic Grenache, hauntingly fragrant Muscat Canelli, and crisp Chenin Blanc, They believe in minimal intervention, advocating a purist, traditional approach that captures the true essence of the grape and the unique Californian terroir.

Moreover, the winemakers at Birichino put a special emphasis on the use of native yeasts during production. These indigenous yeasts, present in the vineyards and winery, help in fermenting the juice into wine, contributing to the distinct, complex character each bottle imbues.
