We planted the Wild Thyme Vineyard with clones Pommard and 943 in the year 2009. It sits along the ridge-line between our Three Sisters Vineyard and our Blue Slide Ridge Vineyard, on the edge of a sheer canyon that the old timers refer to as "Devil's Canyon". The vineyard is just above the fogbank that hugs these costal cliffs, allowing for this Pinot Noir to ripen slowly, developing layers of complexity and flavor. Wild Thyme Vineyard is named for the wild thyme that grows abundantly at this location, and for the wild times we have had as a family while drinking wine on this property since the 1860s. | Martinelli Family WineryAlso a medium ruby red, the 2021 Pinot Noir Wild Thyme Vineyard is perfumed with dried lavender, herbs, raspberry, and crushed rocks. Fresh and medium-bodied, with approachable fruit, iron-rich earth, ripe cherry, and melding spice... | 93 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
