The Louis M. Martini Winery was founded in 1933 by an Italian immigrant who began a winemaking legacy that would span generations. Martini was driven by a desire to produce exceptional wines and recognized Napa Valley as the ideal location. He went on to identify Cabernet Sauvignon as the primary red wine varietal suitable for the region, nearly 50 years before Napa Valley was established as an American Viticultural Area famed for this noble grape. Martini’s preference for hillside-grown fruit led him high into the Mayacamas Mountain range, where he secured a vineyard that would become one of the most coveted sites in California. Monte Rosso Vineyard, named for its celebrated volcanic soil, has been an estate property since 1938. At up to 1200 feet in elevation, it consistently produces red varietals of unmistakable character, with Cabernet Sauvignon vines dating to the 1940s, and is an emblematic source of some of the most acclaimed releases. Martini passed the responsibility of crafting complex, varietally expressive Cabernet Sauvignon to his son, Louis P. Martini, whose contributions to the California wine industry were honored in 2008 with his posthumous induction into the Vintners Hall of Fame. Today, as the fifth winemaker in the winery’s history, Mark Williams continues the legacy of craftsmanship upholding the Martini family's legendary passion and winemaking standards. Williams skillfully crafts Cabernets from esteemed mountain vineyards, including Stagecoach near Atlas Peak, ascending over 1,800 feet above the Napa Valley floor, and Cypress Ranch, located in the rain shadow of Howell Mountain at 1,200 feet. The original winery has recently undergone a significant restoration and offers an array of immersive tasting and culinary experiences. Executive Chef Aaron Meneghelli leads his team with a passion that matches the winery's unwavering commitment to craft. Today, guests can enjoy a range of wines and experiences befitting this Napa Valley icon.
