Two years since my last bottle, and the time definitely helped elevate the overall profile.

Annual anniversary opening of an Aubert as they are my wife’s favorite (and certainly up there in favorites for me as well).

The inaugural vintage for Park Avenue, this is a wine that bursts in to the room Kramer-style. No trepidation in profile for a first vintage wine, Park Avenue screams Aubert all day with some of the hallmarks of others in the lineup. To me, this seemed like a marriage of Larry Hyde (more acidity; bright) and CIX (more opulent; power). In the glass, I was surprised how clear this poured, and not the typical slightly cloudy look I’m used to. Aromatics of white peach, lemon scone, baking spices, and sea salt. The palate has Aubert richness and signature lemon cream, as well as a good vein of acidity (similar to LH, maybe also Powder House). Toes the line slightly toward elegant vs power (Lauren, CIX). Gorgeous mid-palate texture, lingering finish. Another home-run for the Aubert portfolio. — 2 months ago

2019 vintage. Tasted 20 mins after opening. Medium heavy body. Some great complexities in the flavors along with an oppressive amount of concentration. Totally not my style for red Burg/Pinot but it apparently works for them and theirs. Deep Pinot In Rock. Hesher/heavy metal pinot. Let’s go space truckin c’mon. 9.1.24. — a month ago

Wow, this was awesome! High-end White Burg all the way. Camomile, butter, melons, and cream. Deep wine with a lovely texture. Coats the palate. — 4 months ago

Still quite vibrant and buttery. Taste a lot of crème brûlée, nectarine, fig, lemon zest, and honeysuckle. Rich, well-balanced, and nice minerality for a satisfying finish. — a month ago

Summer = Aubert. Perfect with the homemade grilled turkey burgers. Fresh punchy zesty but complex. Lemon. Honeysuckle fleshy fruit but with some stony minerality on the back end. Awesome. — 3 months ago
