Outer quote mark Very pretty aromas and flavors of dried strawberries and plums follow through to a full body, with velvety tannins and an intense finish. It’s all in the finish here. Needs at least five years to come together. Impressive structure. Best blended Barolo ever from here. Inner quote mark (3/2014)

Outer quote mark It opens with a classic Nebbiolo fragrance of rose, crushed violets, cinnamon and balsamic notes. The vibrant palate displays intense red cherry with mint, menthol and anisette accents. It’s well balanced and already accessible but will be even better in a few years. (KO) Inner quote mark (10/2014)
93 points. Wine Spectator
Outer quote mark Lushly textured, this red cuts a rich swath of spicy plum and cherry flavors, with accents of leather and tobacco, until the beefy tannins corral all the elements on the finish. Balanced on the tannic side, this should find equilibrium with time. *Highly Recommended* (BS) Inner quote mark (10/2014)

“The 2021 Estate Pinot Noir Pomarium is notable this vintage for its balance of concentrated fruit and vibrant freshness. Its broody scents of cranberry sauce, mushroom and conifer give way to licorice and Angostura bitters as it spends time in the glass. Its concentrated flavors defy its youthfully reluctant aromas, offering wave after wave of perfumed fruit. It has a fine, chalky frame and focused acidity that drives its long, layered finish. It drinks beautifully straight from the bottle, but it may have more to offer in another 3-5 years.”

“The 2019 Barolo opens to a lean appearance with a very vibrant Nebbiolo color that shines with dark ruby highlights. There is dried cherry and candied fruit aromas on the bouquet. Those fruit layers cede to light spice, lilac and campfire ash. The beauty in this wine is the extreme balance achieved in this classic vintage. It delivers on all levels: intensity, length and joy. The fruit represents a blend of four MGS sites: Bricco Chiesa and Capalot in La Morra, Fiasco in Castiglione Falletto and Monvigliero in Verduno.”

The former assistant winemaker and apprentice for Helen Turley at Marcassin, Matt Courtney left to start something special at Arista in 2013 and is well on his way. The winery has expanded, their waitlist for bottle allocations now stands at 20+ months (!) and every critic in America raves about these wines. This appellation Pinot Noir is a particular treat in 2019, a benchmark in silky smooth, layered and concentrated Pinot Noir that has both grip and grace.
