Martinelli Description

The Martinelli Family has been growing grapes and making wine in the Russian River Valley since the late 1880s. As 5th generation stewards of some of the finest vineyards in the region, they’re proud to continue this legacy of hands-on farming, bringing decades of experience to everything they do.

Their primary goal has always been hand-crafting quality wines that are born in their estate vineyards. All of their grapes are Estate grown, allowing us to use only their favorite blocks for each vineyard designated wine. They have a commitment to quality and have never offered for sale a wine that they felt did not live up to the reputation and expectations of its label. They also try to maintain a sense of consistency with each vintage, while still allowing the true nature of the vineyard to shine through. These wines are limited production and each vineyard is hand farmed very carefully, producing only the finest quality fruit.

The 2019 Chardonnay Three Sisters Vineyard is a very pretty and understated wine. Hints of apricot, orange confit, butter, spice, honey and tropical accents give the Three Sisters its exotic personality. On the palate, the wine is a bit more understated and delicate than what the aromatics and flavor profile initially suggest. (Drink between 2022-2031)
