Martinelli 2022 Jackass Vineyard Zinfandel, Russian River Valley
limited
Limited release of Martinelli's legendary Jackass Vineyard Zinfandel.
previous vintage 95+ Points Robert Parker: "Pale to medium garnet-purple colored, the Martinelli Zinfandel Jackass Vineyard gives up wonderfully fragrant kirsch, raspberry preserves, potpourri, dried roses and oolong tea notes with hints of incense, dusty soil and bay leaves. Full-bodied and full-on sultry with tons of perfumed fruit and a plush texture, it finishes with lovely harmony and plenty of depth. 191 cases produced."
...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. More specifics are included with the following tasting notes."
