Martinelli Pinot Noir Bella Vigne
$43.99
Vineyard Character: The Russian River Valley is among the world’s most exceptional terroir & climate for Pinot Noir. Our estate-grown single vineyards are recognized for being uniquely expressive on their own. We have learned that when blended we can create a wine combining beautiful structure and ripeness. Bella Vigna translates in Italian to Beautiful Vines not only because of their location in the Russian River Valley but also for the wine they produce. Growing Year: The growing year in 2014 was the third dry year in a row and was full of unforeseen challenges provided by Mother Nature. You would think the ongoing drought excessive heat from March thru June and hail in early April would have brought down the quality of this vintage. Thankfully this was not the case! Even though the harvest was very early the small berry sizes and healthy yields have produced very well balanced wines; they are not over-bearing in tannin or structure and are a pleasure to drink.
