The Banfield Vineyard Chardonnay comes from the northern edge of the Green Valley, a sub-appellation of the Russian River Valley. The location of this vineyard is ideal for growing Chardonnay due to the cooling influence of coastal fog. This dry farmed vineyard was planted in 1980 to the Wente Selection of Chardonnay. From perhaps the coldest reaches of the Russian River AVA, this wine demonstrates a singular nerve and precision.
Classic Banfield notes of candied citrus and caramelized sugar are present in abundance. As the wine opens up, more exotic elements of kiwi and grilled pineapple become apparent. A citrus-inflected minerality gives the finish a tangy lift and keeps things lively and balanced.
In 2002, the McWilliams family founded Arista Winery with a vision to create exceptional, terroir-driven Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. With a commitment to quality over quantity, they have developed a unique collection of grand-cru level vineyard sites that showcase the distinct characteristics of the region. Under the expert guidance of Winemaker Matt Courtney, the winery produces small-lot wines that have become benchmarks for the appellation.
Arista Winery was founded by Al and Janis McWilliams in 2002 with a mission to craft artisanal, site-driven Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley. From the beginning, the McWilliams have firmly believed that the finest examples of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are produced in small lots. This belief has led to an emphasis on quality over quantity and a determination to discover and develop unique vineyard sites that reflect the distinct characteristics of the Russian River Valley. Arista Winery is committed to sustainable farming practices and only collaborate with growers who share their ethos and dedication to conscientious, high-quality farming. The goal is to showcase each vineyard's unique characteristics and preserve the natural qualities.
