| 2013 Martinelli Chardonnay Martinelli Road Russian River, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 92 Alcohol by volume: 15.1% Price at time of purchase: $48.00 (from winery) Type: Chardonnay Principal varietal(s): Chardonnay I'm always struck by how pure and crisp and mineral-driven this Chardonnay is considering its obvious richness and high alcohol level. Martinelli seems to have a unique feel for how to handle these great high-alcohol wines. The 2013 Martinelli Road Chardonnay is a beautifully fresh and lively wine, with a beguiling perfume of honeyed pears, citrus, and flowers. Full yet elegant and crisp in the mouth, with a lot of mineral water zing in the lingering finish. - HK 2017-05-19 [Back] |
