Sipping Fine Wine

9.2

Fruit exclusively from the Martinelli Charles Ranch, two miles in from the Pacific, aged for 12 months in 25% new oak. Pale lemon color with aromas of stone fruits and blossom and spice. On the palate flavors of apple and pear with a touch of zesty lemon, crisp, with nitty vanilla notes. Nice mouthfeel, long finish, vivid acidity. — 4 days ago

A beautiful, refined, bright, creamy wine. Tasting honeydew, white peach, butter, cashew, oak, and a hint of honey. Just what I would expect from Aubert (my favorite Chardonnays). — 5 months ago

2019 vintage. A bit more acidity than the Ritchie Vineyard chard from this producer. Makes all the difference. Heavy chard bod. 7.3.24. — 8 months ago

Purchased wine during September 2022 visit to the winery. Fruit is sourced from Ritchie Vineyard in Russian River Valley. Citrus, apple, chamomile and nutmeg on the nose. Melon, stone fruit, chalky minerality and saline notes on the palate. Creamy and rich mouthfeel with a beautiful finish. — a year ago

Mixed spice on the nose transitions to honeydew melon and roasted nuts and elderflower. Possesses depth and texture with moderate acidity. Nice lengthy finish. Loving this…
