Score 93/100 · Drink 2025-2035, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2022
The 2020 Zinfandel Vellutini Ranch is gorgeous and so exotic. Black cherry, spice, cedar, blood orange, tobacco and worn-in leather give the 2020 its complex, multi-faceted personality. In 2020, the Vellutini is a bit light in body, as shocking as that might sound. I would not push my luck on aging. All things considered, the 2020 is nicely done.

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.
