The UV-SL Vineyard is named after the legendary vineyard manager, Ulises Valdez, and its location on Stoetz Lane. Only six miles from the Pacific Ocean, the cooling maritime influences are always present, yet balanced by the natural richness of fruit. The 2013 vintage exhibits pronounced minerality alongside a balanced structure, offering notes of citrus, green apple, and a subtle saline quality, indicative of its coastal origins.

Sublime Pinot Noir and Chardonnay
Aubert was founded by Mark and Theresa Aubert in 2000, located on the famous Silverado trail in Calistoga. Before he and his partner opened Aubert, Mark had gained experience at the Peter Michael Winery and Colgin Cellars and also made wine at a 'custom crush' facility in California. Aubert have some proprietary vineyards, around three and half acres in Sonoma, which they bottle under the 'UV' label. The remainder of the fruit is sourced from selected vineyards across Sonoma and Napa.
In the world of wine, Aubert is really a byword for world-class single vineyard or single block Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The vineyards they source from represent a mix of terroirs and include some old vines as well as some recent plantings. What remains consistent through all these bottlings is the preservation of fruit character and an extreme obsession with quality.
