Mark Aubert’s wine career was given perhaps the greatest push one can receive when he was hired by Peter Michael Winery in 1989. It was there Aubert had the once in a lifetime opportunity to study directly under Helen Turley at Peter Michael Winery. In the ten years that followed, Aubert would leave Peter Michael first for Colgin, then to Sloane and Futo before ending up as the head winemaker at Bryant Family. But although he loved working with Bryant Family’s signature Cabs, it was the Burgundian varietals that always suited him the most. In 1999, he left Bryant Family to start Aubert wines. Since that time, he has reached every milestone any winemaker could dream of, and there is no signs of stopping now. Considered one of the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay winemakers in the U.S. and anywhere else, he has been on the receiving end of twelve 100-point wines so far in his illustrious career.
In 2018, the fruit coming off the vine was fantastic, but much to the chagrin of Mark and the team, drought conditions from previous years kept yields to a minimum. As such, Mark didn’t have enough fruit to bottle all of the single-vineyard wines he normally does. That benefitted the Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir greatly, which has a wonderful mix from his collection of vineyards. 96 Points and a wonderful review from Jeb Dunnuck that you can read below. Released for $125/btl, it is available to us today for 20% off that price, $100/btl for America’s greatest answer to Red Burgundy.

Beautifully done, the 2018 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast has an incredible sense of purity and finesse while packing plenty of classic California fruit. Vivid ruby-hued with a kaleidoscopic array of framboise, spring flowers, charcoal, toasted spices, and damp earth, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, incredible purity of fruit, integrated acidity, and a great finish. This quintessential Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is already drinking brilliantly yet will keep for at least 7-8 years.

This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.
