Quite intense and tangy with high toned pear notes and a bit of VA. Age hasn’t been kind to this and oxidation has kicked this off given the alcohol level.

Really solid varietal character. Nicely done! The high alcohol (15%!!) does come with pronounced bitterness, though the sweetness from the well chosen oak does work to mask it a bit.

Not as good as the one I had the night before but still very enjoyable.

WNH event number 3...new world Pinot. Such a treat to experience the many different variations of Pinot!
To end the night, why not bring out an insane chard? Goodness. This is powerful and young. Lemon cream, toasted cashews, and meringue on the nose. The palate is rich and bold, with sharp acidity. Marzipan and nutmeg on the finish. Didn’t see who brought this, so let me know who brought this, guys!

An ultra prestigious Chardonnay, outstanding intensity and complexity, big nose of whipped cream and pineapple, more ripe tropical fruits and a bit of citrus on the palate. Tremendous wine.

No formal notes taken. Another beauty though, needed more air than it got but was still a joy to try.

Glycerin like on the palate...front and mid-palate have Aubert’s signature lemon cream note. Lengthy finish highlighted by a cobbler like note. Fantastic!
