Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2011

When I am tasting with Mark Aubert, it always seems to be that his personal favorite is the Lauren Vineyard. Another blockbuster, the 2009 Chardonnay Lauren Vineyard is slightly less dense and lower in alcohol than the 2008. Its straw/green color is followed by crisp aromas of apple butter, lemon oil, orange blossoms, brioche and a subtle hint of smoke. The remarkable characteristic in all these Chardonnays is how little influence their 100% new French oak aging has had in their aromatic and flavor profiles. This 2009 should drink well for 7-8 years.

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.
