Description:
Using a wide variety of clones, the Martini family planted Gewurztraminer at Monte Rosso Vineyard in 1943. During harvest five years later, Louis P. Martini walked the vineyard and tasted fruit from every vine before picking. He pounded a nail atop the stake of the ones that were truest to variety in spice and the litchi nut character. He continued this process for two more years, removing the nail if it wasn’t true and adding another if it was. In the early 1960s Louis did the process twice more to select the clones planted at Del Rio Vineyard; thus the name, 5 Nail Selection.
