2023 Aubert "Powder House" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 2023 Aubert "Powder House" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay ((95-97VN), 97WS). 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)" (12/2024) Vinous: "The 2023 Chardonnay Powder House is another of the more floral, weightless wines in this range.

Notes on the vintage from Antonio Galloni for Vinous: "Aubert fans have a lot to look forward to in these upcoming releases. The 2023 Chardonnays capture all the energy and vibrancy of this cool, late-ripening year." (12/2024) Powder House is part of Mark Aubert's site-specific Chardonnay program, bottled separately rather than folded into a broader appellation cuvée. Aubert's Chardonnays are typically fermented and aged in French oak, with the cellar work focused on preserving the identity of each Sonoma Coast vineyard.

Wine Spectator
“Distinctive and aromatic, with notes of fresh-cut Fuji apple, crunchy star fruit, lemon cream, ginger and jasmine. There’s an appealing firmness to the acidity. Toasted, salted hazelnut, toffee and crunchy sea salt gain momentum on the finish, along with touches of toasted green tea and vetiver on the creamy finish. (MW)” (07/2025)
