2021 | Arista Chardonnay | Russian River Valley Aegean Islands One of the most powerful

One of the most powerful Moutons ever for me

the 2005 Chateau Pontet-Canet has long been one of the stars of the vintage and this might well be the best of over a dozen showings of this wine

Deep and yet light on its feet

where below-freezing temperature prevents unwanted bacteria from surviving

It's a solid value for Napa Cab

2021 | Arista Chardonnay | Russian River Valley Aegean Islands One of the most powerfulVery clean and precise with sliced apples, light lemon curd and blossom honey. Medium bodied with a crunchy palate of stone and apple flavors and a chalk like texture. Lovely consistency and length, Crystalline at the end. A blend of all the vineyards used in Aristas single bottlings. Drink or hold. 95 Pts James Suckling
