On this week’s Vine, Wine & Dine, live from The Matheson in Healdsburg, we welcome George and Lee Martinelli Jr. of Martinelli Winery. With roots in California dating back to the 1880s, the Martinelli family has built a lasting legacy of farming and winemaking in Sonoma County’s Russian River Valley. We’ll explore the family’s history, its renowned vineyard sites, and the traditions carried forward through generations while tasting three wines: the 2023 Zio Tony Ranch Chardonnay, 2024 Moonshine Ranch Pinot Noir, and 2024 Giuseppe & Luisa Zinfandel. Chef Dustin Valette pairs the wines with an exceptional menu featuring Charred Octopus, Ahi Tuna Tartare, Confit Beef Cheek Lumaconi, and 14-Day Dry-Aged Flannery Beef.
Stories poured & shared from wine country. A live podcast hosted by Larry Van Aalst, Michael Haney, and Chef Dustin Valette — bringing you the vintners, chefs, and tastemakers shaping Sonoma County, one bottle at a time.
