Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2022

9.4

Pale yellow with pleasing aromas of citrus and tropical fruits, adding in spice and some biscuit notes. On the palate complex palate of flavors, fresh fruit, pineapple, lemon, grapefruit, peaches and Asian pears. Slight earthiness with a smooth and creamy well balanced finish ending with a gentle yeasty character. Very nice! Consistent quality! Will age well! — 6 days ago

I love this wine. Crisp citrus and oak with round pear and vanilla. Holds up well to food but enjoyable on its own. — 20 days ago

Soft and rotund. Very little acidity to talk about. Surprisingly mediocre. — a month ago

Hmm. Perhaps bad luck/an off bottle. I personally have wondered about the longevity of Aubert. It seems engineered for early sumptuousness but I have had a few 5-6 year old bottles that also didn’t live up to expectations.

@Vino Joe, personally, 5 - 6 yrs really does little to excite me. On average, my experience with Aubert is after this period, the risk of a poor showing increases significantly. Just my personal observation.

2023 vintage. Wanted the intensity of previous vintages tasted but wasn't getting it on the back palate. Still, would hit this if encountering in the wild. 01.29.25. — 5 days ago
