2023 Aubert Wines Sugar Shack Estate Chardonnay Napa Valley

(95-97 Points)  --  (Vinous)

The 2023 Chardonnay Powder House is another of the more floral, weightless wines in this range. Chalk, mint, white pepper, crushed rocks, sage and mint lead into a core of white orchard fruit, lemon oil and marzipan. I especially admire its energy and overall vibrancy here. Saline notes confer freshness on the close. (AG)   Review Date: 12/2024
