Eastside is Mark Aubert’s only Chardonnay from the Russian River AVA but it is notable for producing powerful yet delicately elegant wines. Produced from the Montrachet clone, the 2017 sashays from the glass with superbly well-defined notes of apple, baked pear, tropical fruits, roasted nuts and stem ginger. Concentrated and rich, it also has wonderful vitality and freshness, with an immensely long finish.
