Owner/winemaker Mark Aubert has had a distinguished winemaking career including positions at Peter Michael Winery and Colgin Cellars. He has also been a winemaking consultant for several prestigious wineries throughout Napa Valley. Aubert is revered for his outstanding vineyard-designate estate Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, as well as for those sourced from various other vineyards throughout the Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast, to which few others have access. Aubert credits his hands-off approach as the key to successful winemaking, stating "The purity you taste in my wines reflects the work I don't put into them."
Rich and expressive, featuring concentrated boysenberry, plum tart and dark cherry flavors that are flush with crunchy acidity. Minerally midpalate, with a long, plush finish that offers flinty and meaty overtones. Drink now through 2024. 791 cases made. — KM
Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, the 2017 Pinot Noir UV-SL Vineyard gives gorgeous black cherries, pomegranate, fresh blackberries and wild blueberries scents with suggestions of licorice, potpourri, chocolate tart and clove with a touch of dried Provence herbs. The palate is full-bodied with a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and oodles of freshness supporting the flamboyant black and blue fruits, finishing with an exciting herbal lift.
The 2017 Pinot Noir UV-SL Vineyard is the most backward and tannic of the three Aubert Pinots. Dried herbs, cedar, tobacco and menthol add striking aromatic nuance, but today it is the wine's tannin profile that makes the strongest impression. This hillside site above Occidental yields Pinots of real distinction. I imagine the UV-SL will be the slowest of these wines to reveal itself, but it has plenty to say. Lavender, rose petals, blood orange and spices add an exotic flair to this embryonic Pinot.
