2016 Aubert Esate Larry Hyde & Sons Chardonnay Magnum 1,5 Liter

Aubert Estate Larry Hyde & Sons Chardonnay 2016, presented in a 1.5L magnum, is a 100% Chardonnay sourced from the Larry Hyde & Sons Vineyard in Napa Valley’s Carneros. The nose unveils a vibrant bouquet of green apple, pear, and lemon zest, layered with flint, brioche, and subtle oak spice. The palate is full-bodied, with crisp acidity and a creamy texture, delivering flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and a hint of almond. Aged for 10 months in 100% new French oak, it delivers a refined, lingering finish with exceptional aging potential, ideal for long-term cellaring. Perfect for pairing with lobster, roasted poultry, or aged cheeses, this Chardonnay reflects Aubert’s artisanal precision and single-vineyard focus. The 2016 vintage, celebrated for its balance and intensity, produced a wine of remarkable complexity, making this magnum a collector’s treasure. Its opulent flavor profile and structured finesse capture the essence of Carneros’ cool-climate terroir.
