Aubert
Eastside Russian River Valley Chardonnay
14’ Aubert Eastside Chardonnay The color has gotten a bit darker in the last two years. The nose is full of grapefruit blossom, lemon grass/peel. Palate- Rich, powerful, tightly wound.
Pineapple, peach, toasted almond, crème brûlée, crushed rock, integrated acidity, & flawless balance. Starts to truly come together as it warms up. Drinking in it’s prime with 4/5 years in front of it,

This is a more opulent version of Aubert’s Larry Hyde and Sons, but not quite as powerful as Aubert’s other SVD chards. It’s got the lemon square tart, guava, and marshmallow bites, but everything is less toasted. Just slightly toned down. I think this was @Mark Flesher ‘s white of the day, which makes sense since he’s a Larry Hyde & Sons fan!

Mar 21st, 2018Not as cloying as some of the Aubert SVDs I've had lately, more light on it's feet and pure...still a bit more sweetness than older vintages but this is young.

Oct 21st, 2016Still quite vibrant and buttery. Taste a lot of crème brûlée, nectarine, fig, lemon zest, and honeysuckle. Rich, well-balanced, and nice minerality for a satisfying finish.
