Note di degustazione
At the higher end of the alcohol spectrum, these Martinelli Zinfandels are powerful wines for sure, but I hasten to add that they are beautifully balanced and in terms of flavor, tannin and complexity, they represent the pinnacles of ripeness in every sense. Medium garnet colored, the 2015 Zinfandel Jackass Vineyard shows lifted cherry preserves, mulberries and blueberry characters with suggestions of Chinese five spice, dates and baker’s chocolate. It’s a full-throttle, glorious behemoth in the mouth with layers of berry preserves, exotic spice and fruit cake flavors framed by velvety tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with extraordinary length.

Martinelli's 2015 Zinfandel Jackass Vineyard is a heady, exotic wine. Plum, pipe tobacco, licorice and herbs infuse a deep, stunningly beautiful Zinfandel endowed with superb intensity. Even with all of its obvious richness, the Jackass Vineyard is not overdone. It is, however, totally seamless, exuberant and deeply satisfying from the very first taste.
Informazioni sul produttore
Martinelli is a Sonoma benchmark for vineyard-designate bottlings—wines built to highlight how strongly a single site can shape Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, and Zinfandel. Across the range, the focus stays consistent: small-production bottlings that feel distinctly tied to where they’re grown.
