Martinelli 2020 Lolita Ranch Chardonnay, Russian River Valley

Russian River Valley

$61.00

Rare new release from Martinelli and their Lolita Ranch Vineyard. Limited. 94 Points Robert Parker: "The 2020 Chardonnay Lolita Ranch has pretty scents of apricot, honey and almonds with touches of meringue, white pepper and jasmine. The light-bodied palate pairs a luxuriously creamy texture with focused acidity, boasts concentrated stone fruit flavors and has a long, mineral-driven finish. 227 cases were made." Robert Parker: "...One of the great families of Northern California, and of course, one of the highest quality producers, the Martinellis – and rather remarkably so – only estate-bottle 15% of their production from over 300 acres of beautifully situated vineyards in the Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast. No doubt Helen Turley, who worked at Martinelli and mentored its winemaking team, left a profound influence on the quality of the Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs, Syrahs and Zinfandels, a fact that can’t be overstated. The Chardonnays all go through full malolactic fermentation and tend to see about 50% new oak. The Pinot Noirs are always 100% destemmed and largely spend no longer than ten months in about 60% new French oak."
