✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Perched high on a coastal ridge in the Fort Ross-Seaview appellation of Sonoma County, the Wild Thyme Vineyard is named for the fragrant wild herbs that carpet the vineyard floor. Planted in 1998, this extreme site is defined by its rugged topography, cool maritime breezes, and signature coastal fog. These challenging conditions force the Pinot Noir vines to struggle, producing small, thick-skinned berries with remarkable concentration and structural depth. True to the Martinelli family's minimalist winemaking philosophy, the grapes are hand-harvested, fermented with wild yeasts, and aged in French oak barrels before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The resulting wine is a powerful yet elegant expression of the Sonoma Coast, marked by a distinct savory undertone of wild herbs, dark red fruits, and a vibrant mineral spine.

🍾 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.
