Description

Bichi Rosa is a natural wine made from grapes from a dry-farmed 20-ha vineyard with a mysterious grape variety that remains unidentified. The farmer says it could be Dolcetto, andthe Téllez family thinks maybe Cariñena due to its sharp acidity; no one is quite sure, and perhaps it doesn't matter. The head-pruned, own-rooted vines are planted close to the Pacific Ocean in San Antonio de las Minas in Ensenada, Baja Norte. This is a refreshing Pacific-inflected rosé wine, perfect for Baja-style fish tacos, camarones a la plancha, or just sharing with friends on the patio.

Producer profile

Bichi

Bichi means "naked" in some parts of northern Mexico, and for Téllez and Luyt, it thus seemed like an appropriate name to give their new natural wine project. Based at the Téllez family ranch in Tecate, just over the border from California, Bichi farms 10 hectares of their own Tecate vineyards biodynamically and collaborates with a growing family of organic farmers working vineyard land in Tecate and around Valle de Guadalupe.

Wine region

Tecate, Mexico

Mexico has a centuries-long history of winemaking that has mostly gone under the radar. Spanish conquistadores planted vines in the early 1500s, before both Chile and Argentina, and Baja California represents about 90% of the vines in the entire country due to the ideal climate and geography. Brothers Noel & Jair Tellez, with the help of Chilean (by way of Burgundy) winemaker Louis-Antoine Luyt, are producing amazingly fresh and energetic wines from very old, recently recovered vineyards of Misión (aka Listán Prieto), Rosa del Peru (aka Moscatel Negro), Tempranillo and Carinena, among other varieties.
