Birichino (pronounced birikino) is a very interesting project.
Founded in Santa Cruz in 2008, and drawing on 35 combined years of wine production and sales in California, France and Italy, owners and winemakers Alex Krause and John Locke focus on the perfect balance between fragrance, balance and thrill with a particular taste for varieties that provide enormous pleasure and reestablish a direct connection with the sensual world.
