"A dramatic, large-scaled wine, the 2013 Chardonnay Banfield Vineyard is the most unctuous, powerful Chardonnay in this lineup. Winemaker Matt Courtney has coaxed tremendous personality from this site. A host of apricot jam, orange blossom, mint, honey and smoke meld together as this richly textured Chardonnay shows off its distinctive personality. This is a superb showing from Arista."
