2018 AUBERT "EASTSIDE VINEYARD" CHARDONNAY From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, "Eastside is a warmer site in Russian River that is composed of very rocky, gravelly soils. It is usually harvested second, after Sugar Shack. Wow—the 2018 Chardonnay Eastside has a truly compelling hazelnut/praline character with a core of spice cake, apple pie, peach preserves and clotted cream plus suggestions of cloves, allspice and brioche. Full-bodied, the palate is a powerhouse of savory layers, lifted by fantastic freshness and allowing the beautifully pristine apple and peach flavors to kick in on the long, long finish." 97-99+ Points
