✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Martinelli's Terra Felice Vineyard Syrah is a beautiful expression of the family's deep Italian heritage and their mastery of Sonoma County's unique terroirs. Meaning 'Happy Land' in Italian, Terra Felice is a vineyard that benefits from the Russian River Valley's classic climate of cool, foggy nights and warm, sunny days. This dramatic diurnal shift allows the Syrah grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, developing rich, concentrated dark fruit flavors balanced by vibrant acidity and complex savory undertones. True to the Martinelli family's minimalist winemaking philosophy, the wine is crafted using native yeasts and is bottled unfined and unfiltered, preserving the natural intensity, plush texture, and distinctive cracked-black-pepper character of the vineyard.
🍾 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.
