2021 Aubert Chardonnay UV-SL Vineyard
ワインメーカーノート
We refer to this wine as the “chameleon,” as it evolves and morphs in each glass. The combination of climate, soil, and rare clones planted at UV-SL produce kaleidoscopic, site-driven nuances.
Mark Aubert’s Tasting Notes
The 2021 UV-SL is a testament to the complexity and grace achievable with heritage clones planted in a wild, mountainous terrain. Savory and dense, the wine is a kaleidoscope of white tea, pastry shell, and a flinty mineral edge. The wine effortlessly dances between bright, crystalline florals and orchard fruits, and a serious, saline frame that evolves in the glass to something much greater than the sum of its parts. The purity and length of its composition will effortlessly carry the wine in the cellar for the coming 10 to 15 years. The wine is slightly hazy showing our commitment to minimal intervention winemaking.

The 2021 Chardonnay UV-SL comes from largely Goldridge soils in parcels owned and managed by the Valdez family (UV being the initials of Ulises Valdez, Aubert's frequent vineyard collaborator, who died in 2018). There are 2,000 cases of this elixir, which offers up classic notes of toasted hazelnuts, white peaches and citrus zest. It's full-bodied, rich and opulent yet contained and controlled, with great silky length and energy. Aubert describes the oak thusly: "The oak is perfect. It just kisses you with a bit of vanilla and cookie dough." The wine is certainly delicious, and thinking back on it, I wonder if my rating is a bit conservative.
