Readers looking for more minerality and delineation, without sacrificing the undoubted power and nearly over the top style of these bold Chardonnays should check out the 1997 Chardonnay Martinelli Road Vineyard. A new vineyard planted with Dijon clones from Burgundy, the Martinelli Road boasts an unctuous texture, terrific fruit purity, and huge body. However, there is even more smokiness, yeasty fruit flavors, as well as delineation. Tel. (707) 525-0570; fax (707) 525-9463
