Lot 200 Details
AUBERT CHARDONNAY RITCHIE VINEYARD 2011

Sonoma County.
u. 5 x 1 cm. 2 x scraped labels. 1 x scuffed label

The 2011 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard is utterly magnificent. I especially like the way the 2011 is at once unbelievably rich, but not at all heavy. Yellow stone fruit, light floral honey, nectarine and almonds inform the rich, oily finish. The 100% new barrels are imperceptible. All the elements are beautifully in place in this harmonious, voluptuous Chardonnay. This is a great, great showing from Mark Aubert. April 2013 WA 96
