001 Vintners, Cabernet Sauvignon, Ecotone Vineyard, Napa Valley, 2021 (Graeme MacDonald)
Overview of the WineFollowing the repeal of Prohibition, in 1933, Carmine Martignetti was granted retail license number 001 for Martignetti Grocery Company in Boston’s North End. Since the late 1970’s, a passion for wine led our family to introduce numerous Napa Valley wines to New England. Inspired by those classic vintages, third-generation principals Carmine and Beth Martignetti and their sons Freddie, Philip and Michael have created their own wine, sourced from thirty-three-year-old hillside vines of Ecotone Vineyard. In partnership with winemaker Graeme MacDonald, grape-grower Jack Bittner, and crafted at Hudson Napa Valley, the Martignetti family aspires to create a classically styled, singular wine that reflects this unique site.
