Product Notes

Birichino Pétulant Naturel Malvasia Bianca wine is an elegantly crafted Californian delight offering a captivating nose of florals, pear and delicate spices. In each sip, an effervescent charm reveals notes of apple, lychee and honeydew melon, dancing delightfully with fine acidity. This vibrant Malvasia Bianca varietal stands out with its clear, pale lemon hue and light, petillant nature. Produced using naturally occurring wild yeast fermentation, it brings a unique, off-dry character and gentle sparkle. Perfect for drinking now or cellaring, this wine complements seafood and soft cheeses exquisitely. Truly, a stunning natural wine experience that enchants the palate.

Tasting Notes

Limpid yellow-gold. Vibrant aromas of fresh pear, nectarine and pink grapefruit are complemented by building floral and honey flourishes. Juicy and energetic on the palate, offering sappy orchard and pit fruit flavors that are given a refreshingly bitter edge by a frisson of citrus pith. The floral nuance comes back strong on a long, gently spicy finish that leaves white peach and pear nectar notes behind

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.
