Aubert Chardonnay Lauren Estate Vineyard Sonoma Coast 2007 (knicked label)
Sustainable Practices
50% OFF RETAIL!
From a vineyard planted on the cool Sonoma Coast, this Chardonnay offers a scintillating balance of ripe orchard fruit and saline minerality. The 2007 shows depth and intensity — baked apple, lemon custard, and almond skin — with a tensile acidity that keeps it vibrant. Despite the cosmetic label imperfection, the wine itself is pristine and nuanced, rewarding extended cellaring.
