Martinelli Bella Vigna Chardonnay is a dry white wine produced by Martinelli Winery, a family-owned winery, which has been runnning for more than five generations, located in the Russian River Valley appellation of Sonoma County, California. The Chardonnay grapes for this wine are sourced from estate owned vineyards across the wider Sonoma Coast area, which is known for its unique mix of sunshine and a cool, oceanic, climate, resulting in grapes with exceptional flavor and complexity. The winemaking process is focused on creating opulence. The fruit is picked at full ripeness for bold fruit expression and the wine sees extensive high-toast oak adding complex notes of caramel and butterscotch. This is full-throttle Chardonnay. The body is rich in density and texture, the oak is luxurious and the finish is long. A great choice who like obvious winemaking and hedonistic oaked white wines.
