Limited new Pinot release from one of California's top producers Aubert. 95 Points Robert Parker: "Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, the 2017 Pinot Noir UV-SL Vineyard gives gorgeous black cherries, pomegranate, fresh blackberries and wild blueberries scents with suggestions of licorice, potpourri, chocolate tart and clove with a touch of dried Provence herbs. The palate is full-bodied with a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and oodles of freshness supporting the flamboyant black and blue fruits, finishing with an exciting herbal lift."

Enjoyable Pinot. A bit jammy and limited vs high end CA peers but not much stopped this going down quickly. Color was a bit darker too.

Solid and enjoyable but not as initially deep for a Pinot. Fruit was less in front but still bright and lively. Nice change of Pinot pace. It deepened and developed on Day 2. Loved the structure and the mid range complexity.

Wow...what an introduction. This Pinot sings both to the nose and your palate. Dark black and blue fruits, chocolate, and earthiness. Superb

This is a really big Pinot with an alcohol over 15%. The wine is fruity and delicious with plenty of lenght but does loose some of what I would consider “pinotness” I.e. acidity, brightness, juiciness....
