Red cherry and strawberry with hints of earth. M+ acid, m body and round tannin. Red fruit, spice. A little bitter on the front. M finish. Light and elegant. Love that both primary and secondary fermentation is native and unfined and unfiltered.

The star of the night. Massive nose of flower petals and dried fruit, lent to a smooth silky experience on the pallet with macerated cherry and smoke. A super long finish for a pinot, this is drinking at the top of its game

Medium bodied, red fruit, balanced tannins & beautifully long finish. Arista is one of our favorite vineyards. They're food and wine paired lunch is a must try!
