Birichino Chardonnay Peter Martin Ray Vineyard 2021 (75cl)

This is a 2021 Chardonnay from Birichino, the Santa Cruz winery founded in 2008 by Alex Krause and John Locke. It is bottled in a 75cl bottle and carries the name of the Peter Martin Ray Vineyard. Birichino works with old vines, some of which tell a story stretching back more than a century. Technical intervention is kept to a minimum and chemical additions are avoided, so the grapes and the terroir speak rather than a house signature. The winemakers aim for wines that are pure, intense and invigorating.
