Taub Family Vineyards Martinelli Vineyard Laughlin Road, Chardonnay, Russian River Valley 2023 - Tech Sheet

PALM BAY INTERNATIONAL Martinelli Vineyard Laughlin Road, Chardonnay, Russian River Valley 2023 BACKGROUND Taub Family Vineyards traces its roots back four generations—mere days after the repeal of Prohibition. Wine has always been at the heart of the family’s story. Marc D. Taub, raised with a profound reverence for winemaking, inherited this passion from his grandfather Marty, a pivotal figure in the wine industry since the early 1930s and later, his father David. In 2013, Marc acquired Heritance Vintners in Napa Valley, now transformed as Taub Family Vineyards. With their namesake, Marc and his son Jake look to explore Napa and Sonoma's dynamic sub- appellations and single vineyards to build their own storied house, curating wines from some of these valleys' most esteemed sites. TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES The growing season was marked by very low precipitation, with smaller than average yields and cluster weights. The trade-off, concentration of fruit, was simply astounding. The fruit was harvested on August 25, 2022. WINEMAKING & AGING The grapes were harvested by hand. Whole clusters were fed directly to press. The following morning the racked juice was moved to Francois Freres barrels, 20% new, where it underwent and completed native yeast primary fermentation. Weekly batonnage was performed through completion of malolactic fermentation in late May. The wine remained on lees for a full year prior to bottling. TASTING NOTES Aromas open with bosc pear and subtle vanillin notes. The texture reflects both the fog influenced site and extended élevage on lees, at once nervy and deep, with outstanding concentration. Vin de Garde.
