Features
Alex Krause et John Locke ont fondé Birichino à Santa Cruz en 2008. S'appuyant sur quatre décennies de fabrication de vin en Californie, en France, en Italie et au-delà, ils se concentrent sur l'atteinte de l'équilibre parfait entre parfum, équilibre et rondeur. Provenant d'un certain nombre de vignobles du 19e siècle et du début du 20e siècle soigneusement cultivés, familiaux et propres (et quelques-uns de la fin de l'ère disco) plantés en foule dans des climats marins plus modérés, leur préoccupation est de sauvegarder la qualité et l'énergie de leurs matières premières. Leur préférence va à une intervention minimale, favorisant le plus souvent des fermentations naturelle, utilisant des fûts en inox ou en bois neutre, un soutirage et un collage minimal, et évitant complètement la filtration lorsque cela est possible. Mais leur objectif essentiel est de faire de délicieux vins qui donnent du plaisir, et revitalisent le dégustateur.
Les raisins proviennent de 3 parcelles exploitées dans le sud des montagnes de Santa Cruz. Ils ont découvert que ce petit coin de terroir marque les vins rouges qui y sont produits par des parfums d'extraits botaniques, d'herbes de montagne et de liqueur de cerise.
Dégustation : Belle robe rouge clair avec beaucoup d’éclats. Arômes et saveurs de fruits rouges, cerise, kirsch. Le coté « botanique » de la vendange entière s’exprime bien. C’est gourmand, juteux mais bien structuré. Selon Alex et John, ce pinot se rapproche plus d’un vin du Jura ou du Val d’Aoste que d’une cuvée californienne.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
