"I had the pleasure of visiting your winery two years ago.  A group of us ate a lovely lunch by your awesome water garden.  The bottle of Pinot Noir was unbelievable. Your winery is one of the nicest I have visited with an unbelievable vista, stunning grounds and facilities, and finally, wine that offers anyone a wonderful indulgence. I will definitely plan on coming to visit again. You will see me soon. I am coming to California to visit my sister in Windsor, CA., and I will plan on heading out to Arista with some lunch, purchasing some of your superb Pinot and enjoying myself in your gardens."

"I recently was at your winery for a Medtronic event.  The wine was great! Ended up buying two cases to ship home."
Eric Bosler, Minnesota

"We thoroughly enjoyed the views and the wines.  Andy was an excellent source of interesting information about the wines and the stunning grounds.  He went well 'above and beyond' to make our visit a memorable one.  Of all the wineries we visited, yours was by far the most beautiful and most gracious."

"I like both your Pinot and Gewurtz for their clean true varietal flavors... You make wines that reflect your climate and geography as well as your wine making skill.  You guys are a real find."

"It has been a long,snowy winter here -- thanks for sharing your wonderful wine and filling my head with thoughts of soft summer nights sipping Arista on the deck of the lake house.  Blessings!"

"We enjoyed a bottle of 2006 Toboni Pinot Noir with our Valentine's Day dinner.  It was wonderful!"
Anonymous, Pennsylvania

"Our holiday festivities here in Virginia were greatly enhanced by your wonderful, wonderful Pinots! I’ve been lucky to have been able to taste some really extraordinary California Pinot Noir over the past 15 years or so and I have to tell you that I truly believe your Pinot from Toboni ranks right up there as one of the most outstanding wines I’ve ever had! Absolutely exquisite. "
Suzanne Puryear, Virginia

"On our last California visit we found a bottle of Arista pinot and took it with us to Chez Panisse and LOVED it. I have not seen another Arista since, and so we would love to visit if at all possible. "

"We visited you during a scorching week in August and brought home a lovely Pinor Noir (which we greedily drank in the first week home!)"
