Tasting Notes
The Russian River Valley Pinot Noir bottling is a wonderful introduction to the Arista portfolio for 2019. The wine really captures the essence of the vintage. Blue and red fruits predominate on the nose, but the presence of a lavender inflected floral component is unmistakable. There is great tension and texture on the palate, with fine grained tannins supporting flavors of fresh pomegranate and tangy wild blackberry. A hint of cola on the long finish speaks to the quality of this vintage, where warm sunny days and cool nights gave rise to perfect ripeness balanced by a gentle yet refreshing acidity.
The 2019 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley has a medium ruby color and is bursting with a combination of unabashedly gregarious berry fruit and loads of alluring, earthy undertones. The medium-bodied palate features a balance of concentrated, ripe fruit and refreshing acidity, with a frame of grainy tannins and long, flavorful finish. It's drinking beautifully straight from the bottle! Drink date: 2023-2033. Erin Brooks
Bright and ripe, with racy-edged pomegranate and raspberry notes underscored by a savory edge, which lends nice lift through the finish. Offers nice freshness.
