December 31, 2023 - Year end dinner pairing wine. Opened 2 hrs before the dinner, and enjoyed for 2 hrs. Glamorous floral nose like walking in flower garden, with intense berries. Really well expressed character in nose and long, long finish. Mid acidity, thick and quite powerful in palate. Just good enough now.

December 4, 2022 - My last bottle of four. As is so often the case with Aubert Pinots, the
fruit is intense and lovely. The wine improved in the glass over a couple of hours (I kept two glasses as that from which I was sipping was hard to resist). I'm not sure how kind time will be to this, but who cares - I'm happy to move on the next vintage -

July 4, 2022 - wow. had this side by side with a 2008 elivette spring mountain cab. this was far ahead; just the right amount of bright fresh cranberry fruit with enough acidity to balance the new world profile; def big and masculine and very CA pinot; but a really sublime expression of that and very enjoyable with our dinner. very surprised it wasnt past its prime; felt lucky that this bottle seemed at its peak

March 9, 2022 - Top notch nicely done refined Pinot. Nice acidity, floral lift, cola on the nose. Beautiful bottle. Violets on the palette. Have had better bottles of Aubert, but this is great bottle. See how this develops.
This bottle is perfect for a five star Michelin or suit and tie dinner with a significant other. Nice wine and the fine structure is amazingly beautiful.
