The 2022 Pinot Noir Wild Thyme Vineyard is laced with black cherry, plum, lavender, sage, menthol and spice. Ample and broad in feel, with notable textural resonance, the 2022 is super-expressive in this tasting. As always, the Wild Thyme is a dense, plush wine. This site, at elevation, is the first one Martinelli picks on the coast. (AG)
The 2021 Pinot Noir Wild Thyme Vineyard is polished, perfumed and expressive. It has pure, layered scents of raspberry and strawberry jam, rhubarb, allspice and garrigue, offering new aromatic details with each return to the glass. The medium-bodied palate explodes with supple, mouthwatering fruit, and it has a very long finish with tremendous detail. This has such an effortless shine! 185 cases were made.

About the producer
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.
