Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2011

One of my favorite Aubert offerings that typically has a Montrachet-like character emerges from the Reuling Vineyard. Made from a suitcase clone from Burgundy’s most famous vineyard, it is an extraordinary effort. Readers looking for staggering levels of minerality and depth of flavor should check out this Chardonnay. The 2008 Chardonnay Reuling Vineyard offers aromas of crushed rocks, damp soil, honeysuckle, brioche, lemon oil, orange marmalade and buttered citrus. This compelling Chardonnay is full-bodied with great intensity, good acidity and stunning perfume as well as length. It should drink well for 7-8 years.

Rich and full-bodied, with ripe layers of fig, apricot and melon shaded by toasty, smoky roasted marshmallow flavors that are intense, vibrant and lively with acidity. Long and persistent on the finish.

About Winery

Aubert Wines is a boutique producer that is owned and operated by Mark Aubert. He is also the winemaker at Colgin, where he took over for Helen Turley.

Until 1999, Aubert was the winemaker at Peter Michael. While working for this Knights Valley winery, he developed the exceptional Les Pavots red Bordeaux blend. He also was the winemaker at Sloan for a few years, and helped to develop their reputation.

After leaving Peter Michael, Aubert began working as a consultant and also started plans for his own label. In 2000, he purchased 7 acres of Chardonnay vines in the Sonoma Coast AVA. Since then, he has planted several additional acres of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the cool climate of Western Sonoma County. He also sources a few tons of Chardonnay each year from Peter Michael.
