2016 Aubert, Sugar Shack, Sonoma County, Bottle (750ml)

JD100 "The 2016 Chardonnay Sugar Shack Estate comes from a site in Napa Valley (it?s all Montrachet clone, and the vineyard is farmed by David Abreu) and is undeniably the most opulent and sexy in the lineup. Huge orchard fruits, lemon curd, white flowers, and orange liqueur notes give way to an opulent, thick and layered beauty that still just glides across the palate, with no sense of heaviness. While it was brought up in 80% new French oak, it?s absorbed every bit of it and is just a heavenly Chardonnay that could come from nowhere else." (June 2018)
