WINEMAKER’S NOTE:
The 2019 Toboni Vineyard Pinot Noir is the last vintage Arista produced. It is located in the northwestern corner of the Santa Rosa Plain, just east of the Laguna Ridge. Planted to four clones of Pinot noir – 667, 777, 115, and Pommard – this gently rolling vineyard produces complex wines with classic Russian River Valley qualities. In 2019, the Toboni Vineyard Pinot noir possesses impressive concentration of just-ripe raspberry, sugared cranberries, cola, and black plum. There is great midpalate density with grilled ribeye, graphite, and savory mineral notes complimenting the dense fruit core. Peak drinking window: 2022 through 2027
