Martin Ray
Martin Ray produces wines from Sonoma County in California's North Coast, drawing from vineyards including Coast Grade in the Santa Cruz Mountains and Mill Station. The winery's portfolio centers on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, varieties that thrive in the region's cool maritime climate. The Coast Grade Vineyard Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir and the Mill Station Vineyard Chardonnay—along with the Dutton Ranch-Mill Station Chardonnay—represent the core of the range. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Falstaff. Pinot Noir from the Santa Cruz Mountains typically expresses the region's characteristic balance of ripe fruit and structural tension, while Chardonnay from Mill Station reflects the precision and mineral character associated with Sonoma's cooler sites.
