A little prematurely oxidized. Not enough to not drink but obviously not what it could've been.

One of the best Aubert pinots I’ve had. Everything working in seamless harmony. Gorgeous candied cranberries, fresh black cherries, herbal twang and freshly chopped cedar. Wonderful acidity with red plum, earth, kiss of maple, and baking spices. Very nice. Thanks @Dan Fitzgerald .

Powerful Pinot here. Out of a magnum and once it opened up, it was in a really nice place.

@Ted Mandes @Christine @Steve Colanero One of my go to California pinots. It's a great example of a superb California Pinot. You definitely see the Terroir & stylistic differences between this and Old World. Everything about this was on overdrive vs Elegance. Bigger fruit, bolder notes, shorter finish. Great but not awesome in comparison to Old World. We found ourselves tipping our hat to the Old World competitors all night long. Shit, this experience will be costing me a lot of money!! Lol 😂

One of my favorite California Pinot producers. So damn good. Needs time and air to develop especially this was so young.

Oct 31st, 2016Wow! Initially had a little gamey nose but it evolved into a beautiful bright elegant but powerful Pinot.
