Lot #4912. Aubert Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard 2003

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 96 RP.
"Reminiscent of a Batard-Montrachet, the light straw/greenish-colored 2003 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard boasts a huge, opulent, tropical fruit, roasted hazelnut, brioche, and spice box-scented bouquet. Notions of orange marmalade and citrus oil also emerge in the flavors. Full-bodied and spectacularly concentrated, it is the finest effort I have tasted from this cold climate vineyard." Wine Advocate #162, Dec 2005
Provenance: The Griffin Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $275
