estate experience
The Estate Experience at Arista Winery is an immersive journey designed to enchant wine enthusiasts, offering an exploration of the Estate and its exquisite Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wine. The experience begins with a private, guided tour of the idyllic estate, where guests learn about the winemaking process, our unique terroir, and our commitment to sustainable farming practices. The tour leads to the Estate Pavilion, a private and inviting space, where guests are encouraged to linger, enjoy the ambiance, and take in the fullness of the estate. The centerpiece of the Estate Experience is a flight of our three, most limited production wines - a curated selection of our Estate Chardonnay, Estate Pinot Noir, and Estate Reserve Pinot Noir.
