Score 92/100 · Drink 2024-2034, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2021
The 2019 Zinfandel Vellutini Ranch is ripe and racy to the core. A heady, flamboyant wine, the Vellutini takes varietal Zinfandel notes and turns the volume up to eleven or twelve. Bright red berry fruit, spice and floral notes give this flamboyant Syrah tons of exotic beauty. It is maybe a bit much for my palate, but readers who enjoy super, extroverted, pushed wines will surely appreciate it.

About the producer

Martinelli
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.
