✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Lolita Ranch Syrah is a profound expression of Sonoma County terroir, sourced from a historic property purchased in 1945 by Tony and Lolita Martinelli. Situated on a steep, east-facing hillside in the Russian River Valley, the vineyard is defined by its cool-climate fog and classic Goldridge sandy loam soils. Planted with the Alban clone of Syrah, these vines yield incredibly concentrated fruit. The winemaking philosophy remains deeply traditional and minimalist, utilizing native yeast fermentation and bottling the wine unfined and unfiltered. This approach preserves the wine's signature wild, savory character, marked by intense notes of dark blackberries, cracked black pepper, smoked meats, and a rich, velvety texture that reflects both the rugged hillside terroir and the Martinelli family's multi-generational dedication to the land.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Martinelli Winery blev grundlagt i slutningen af 1880'erne af de italienske immigranter Giuseppe Martinelli og Luisa Vellutini og er i dag en berømmet familieejad vingård med dybe rødder i Californiens Russian River Valley og Sonoma Coast. Gennem mere end et århundrede har familien dyrket historiske, stejle skråninger – herunder de legendariske parceller Jackass Hill og Jackass Vineyard, som blev beplantet helt tilbage i 1887. Drevet af et kompromisløst fokus på eget markarbejde og nænsom vinfremstilling formår vinhuset at indfange Sonoma Countys unikke mikroklimaer og terroir. Martinelli nyder verdensomspændende anerkendelse for sine kraftfulde Zinfandels fra gamle vinstokke, udtryksfulde enkeltmarks-Pinot Noir, strukturerede Syrah-vine og fyldige, cremede Chardonnayer.
