The 2021 Arista Russian River Valley Chardonnay is a white wine from Arista Winery in the Russian River Valley appellation. It blends single vineyard and estate wines from Banfield, Ritchie, El Diablo, and Estate Vineyard, with old vine plantings and unique terroir. It is made with slightly less new oak than the vineyard designates.
It shows richness and silkiness with structure. The nose offers white peach, toast, sweet cream, and white pepper. Flavors of orchard fruit, quince, and Asian pear, including pear skin, are joined by tangy acidity and minerals on a savory, mouth-watering finish. Lemon curd, candied oranges, and white flowers appear with baking spices and caramelized sugar. A touch of flinty reduction and citrus-inflected acidity keep the finish fresh and lively.
