Alex Krause and John Locke founded Birichino in Santa Cruz in 2008. Drawing four decades making wine in California, France, Italy, and beyond, they prefer to work with family-owned, own-rooted 19th and early 20th century vineyards (and a few from the late disco era) to produce natural, delicious wines made with minimal intervention that give pleasure, revitalize, and revive.Alex Krause and John Locke founded Birichino in Santa Cruz in 2008.
