2020 Aubert Wines Park Avenue Chardonnay Sonoma Coast

(95 points)  --  (Wine Advocate)

The second vintage to be bottled under this vineyard designation—the vineyard was planted in 2016—Aubert's 2020 Chardonnay Park Avenue is a lush, full-bodied effort loaded with ripe-tasting stone fruit, set against a backdrop of white nectarine and fresh lime juice. Plump and creamy in the mouth, expansive and generous, it finishes with a savory hint of mocha. Sandwiched between Lauren and CIX, it's a parcel that should yield even greater wines as the vines age.
