Not as rich as the ‘15 but with the same bright fruit. Well balanced with more forward acidity supporting the touch of vanilla and the citrusy finish. — 6 years ago

Amazingly jammy and rich. Go with sweet tomato sauces or sweet peppers and sausages. Save for a Godfather marathon. — 7 years ago

I've liked all the Arista pinots and chardonnay I've had. This is no exception. Full body. Strawberries. Lush. These drink really well young. Not sure how they will do as they age. — 9 years ago

15’ Aubert Ritchie. Best Ritchie I’ve enjoyed from Mark to date? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Medium + bodied. Beautifully balanced Chardonnay. White peach, splash of pineapple core, apricot, white toast, sprinkle in a bit of floral spices. 3 favorites from this vineyard are Château Boswell- Arista- Aubert. Cheers. -at BLT Honolulu, Hawaii — 6 years ago

Light bright fruit. Almost like if pinot was grown in Provence. — 7 years ago

Pretty delicious. Nice acidity, green/yellow apple, and stone fruit/white nectarine characters, indicative of the warmer Anderson valley climate. Steely minerality. I'll be drinking this all summer long. — 9 years ago

A very nice expression of Russian River chard. The fruit is the star, but supported by mild acidity and a nice oak signature that carries into the long finish. — 7 years ago

Drank w pork arista. Light, translucent ruby. The acid is a bit dominant still. The wine needs some more time to balance out. But the energy and tension are excellent. Spicy aromatics. Tart cherry on palate. — 8 years ago

Waited two years from purchasing and it was worth the wait. Black cherry, little earth. So smooth. — 9 years ago

Opened by my good friend @Charles Gudas at Circa 1886 in Charleston (finally getting around to posting a few). My first Ferren. Beautiful expressive nose, mid palate of candied strawberries. Lengthy finish. Best new Pinot I've tasted in a while. I prefer Matt's Ferren Pinots to his Ferren chards, and prefer his Arista chards to Ferren chards. — 9 years ago
