The Story
Corralitos sits at the cool, foggy southern edge of the Santa Cruz Mountains, and the microclimate here ripens Pinot Noir slowly and at naturally lower alcohol levels - exactly what you want. Richard Alfaro's 'A' Pinot is the gateway to his estate range, drawn from his own plantings on a former apple farm that he converted to vines in 1997. A fresh, transparent style of California Pinot Noir, made for the dinner table rather than the scoresheet, and priced like Alfaro is rooting for you to drink it.
