Decanted for 15 min. Still 2 years left. Tannins dissipated. Terrific fruit but not overwhelming by CA standards (European palates would chafe though). Balanced. Some pepper, blackberry and dark fruit. Long finish. Terrific. Had it with a sausage sauce pasta. This is the last of my 4 bottles. Wish I had more. There’s no better value imo (and I’ve had many of the elite SoCal syrahs at >$200 bottle).

This is just not my style. Prefer white burgundies and was told Aubert produces wine similar to that. I was told wrong. This is a California style white. Oaky and heavy to me.
