2010 Aubert Chardonnay Reuling Vineyard

"The exuberant 2010 Chardonnay Reuling Vineyard is another big, big wine bursting with fruit. Caressing the palate from start to finish, this is a decidedly broad shouldered, expansive Chardonnay loaded with power and energy. White flowers, apricots and spices add lift on the finish. The 2010 Reuling bears more than a passing resemblance to some of the greatest white Burgundies, but with that extra volume that is typical of California Chardonnay. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.
This is a stunning set of wines from Mark Aubert. Both the Chardonnays and Pinots developed considerably over the time I followed them. Readers should open the wines at least several hours in advance. In general, the 2010s are brighter and more focused than the 2009s, which are more generous. Alcohol levels are also lower across the board in 2010. The Chardonnays spend 10-12 months in barrel, followed by 2 months in oak, and are usually bottled around Christmas. The cellar is kept cold to encourage slow malos, which occur in the spring. The wines are never racked until they are prepared for bottling with no fining or filtration. The Pinots begin their vinification with cold soaks that last 5-6 days. The wines are only racked when they are bottled, which usually takes place in September. Aubert describes his Pinots as largely inspired by his experiences with the Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines he made at a number of properties, including Colgin, Sloan, Bryant and Futo, which remains his only consulting client. Stylistically, the Pinots are big, bold and highly expressive. Much the same can be said of the Chardonnays. The 2010 Pinots are more pointed and vibrant than the 2009s, a year in which the fruit ripened evenly as there were no rains."

"Lots of rich creamy, smoky oak flavors are wrapped snugly around roasted fig, baked apple and honeydew melon notes. The lengthy finish keeps reverberating around the core flavors. Drink now through 2019. 416 cases made. –JL" (Issue: Jul 31, 2012)
