Introducing Il Capo—the crème de la crème from Martellotto’s 2014 vintage! This stunning Bordeaux-style blend brings together Malbec, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, a wine that Bordeaux lovers will adore. Crafted from the up-and-coming Happy Canyon AVA in Santa Barbara, this region is quickly making its mark as California’s answer to French Bordeaux. Aged to perfection, this beauty is irresistible now and promises to evolve gracefully through 2030. With only 120 cases produced, this is an exclusive gem you don’t want to miss!
Martellotto Winery in Santa Barbara has been producing award-winning wines since 2005. Since the winery self-distributes fewer than 8,000 cases, the wines have flown under the radar. However, the secret is now out. Consistent 90+ ratings and several double gold medals in competitive blind wine competitions have brought the attention of major publications and critics.
Martellotto Winery produces unique and exciting wines designed to surprise and ignite discerning palates of wine lovers everywhere. Inspired by Greg Martellotto’s family's winemaking roots in Italy, the blends are a reflection of distinctly original techniques developed, refined and perfected over the years by expert and connoisseur Greg Martellotto.
Aging: Aged for almost two years in French and American oak.
Malbec, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. The dark, haunting aromatics from extended barrel aging and the sumptuous blend make this a serious wine to pair with any meat. You can expect secondary flavors of dried fruits like figs, plums, and baked cherry. At ten years young, this wine is also showing dried leather, earl grey tea leaves, and black olives.
