Corralitos Wine Company
The Corralitos Wine Company is a collaborative effort by experienced and dedicated wine growers. We hand-craft small lots of unique high-quality wine, then sell it directly to our customers. Our wine features sustainably-produced fruit from premier vineyards located in coastal appellations of California. A very limited supply of these superb wines are available exclusively thru this website. We invite you to learn more about our passion for exceptional wine on these pages, and then to try our wines and judge for yourself. It was 1999 and we wanted to try our hand at making wine – literally by hand, one barrel at a time. After much research and using some of our contacts in the Sonoma and Monterey county wine growing areas, we produced our first barrel of Pinot Noir. Strictly for our own consumption, and a few friends who happened by. Through trial and error (yes there were some of those) we refined the art of making a superb Pinot Noir. Our friends kept telling us we should get serious and share this great wine with everyone else. So, more than 10 years later, we have turned our ‘hobby’ into Corralitos Wine Company. Our passion for really great wines has led us to the planting of 5 acres of Pinot Noir in the Santa Cruz Mountain appellation where we will soon have our own estate wines. For now we use our extensive contacts in the Sonoma, Napa, Monterrey and Santa Cruz wine growing areas to secure grapes from premier vineyards. We carefully monitor all aspects of the growing and harvesting process to make sure we get the right fruit, at the right time. So it has taken us 10 years to bring our wine passion to you. While Pinot Noir is our first love, we will also be releasing other varietals in limited supplies. Watch our website for upcoming releases as we will only be producing a few barrels of each.
