Lee Sr. & Carolyn Martinelli have not hosted a wine dinner on the East Coast in nearly two decades; and so with much excitement, NY Vintners have been given a tremendous opportunity... to taste some of the most sought after wines in the Sonoma Valley with them. Join us... NY Vintners welcomes the Martinelli Family as they present their current releases of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and ZinfandelWednesday, May 16th @ 6:30pm (These handcrafted wines are un-fined, un-filtered and neither cold nor heat stabilized; which allows them to best represent their natural flavors & terroir.) Dinner in three courses; with NY Vintners' Executive Chef Ryan Smith. These wines will also be available for sale after the event. Another rare event unto itself.
Luciano Sandrone is one of the iconic producers in Barolo, and his is both a well known and extraordinary story.
Sandrone’s wines are sometimes described as straddling the modern and traditional styles in the region: elegant, attractive and easy to appreciate right from their first years in bottle, but with no less power and structure than traditional Barolos.
The entire range of wines, all limited in production, are jewels of impeccably balanced concentration and precision, and the ability to age for long periods of time.
