Vinous
Tasted from magnum, the 2011 Chardonnay UV-SL is gorgeous. Tangerine oil, mint, dried flowers, dried herbs and chamomile lend striking aromatic and flavor complexity to this oily, luscious Chardonnay. This is a remarkable showing from vines that were just six years old at the time. The slightly advancing color and flavor profile suggests the 2011 is a wine to drink now and over the next few years.

Wine Spectator
Makes points of subtlety and finesse, with touches of creamy, smoky oak woven into a fabric of fresh-cut apple and pear, gaining richness and depth and ending with a long finish.

Mark Aubert’s Sonoma Coast vineyard-designate Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs have risen in popularity at a dizzying speed. Aubert’s career in winemaking began in 1989 at Peter Michael under the tutelage of Helen Turley, which led to his time at Colgin, Sloan, Futo and then Bryant Family, before founding Aubert Wines with his wife Teresa in 1999. His wines express the essence of singular terroirs with an effortless grace. Mark crafts the wines of Aubert to speak to a variety of wine lovers with one thing in common – selective palates that expect nothing but the best.
