James Suckling: 97 Points
Aromas of citrus, apple skin, grape skin, vanilla, and brioche. Full-bodied with an oiliness and acidity that runs so long. Sort of rock and roll here. Flinty.
Vinous: 97 Points
The 2021 Chardonnay Park Avenue all Hyde clone, is more Hyde than the Hyde, so to speak! It possesses tremendous textural richness and breadth, with plenty of the orange peel, spice and tropical notes that are signature of this clone. Readers who like opulent Chardonnays will adore the Park Avenue. Its an exquisite wine in every way.
Wine Spectator: 96 Points
This stunning white offers a wonderful mix of fleshy grilled peach, mango and lemon curd flavors, with lush acidity and a whiff of minerality, followed by notes of green cardamom, toasted, salted hazelnut and crème brûlée on the long, juicy finish.
Wine Advocate: 96 Points
The newest addition to the Aubert lineup, Park Avenue (a former apple orchard) was planted in 2016 to Hyde Old Wente and Montrachet selections. Like all of the Chardonnays, there's a hefty dose of new French oak used in the 2021 Chardonnay Park Avenue, and there does seem to a bit more cedar on the nose here than in the other bottlings. Still, there are attractive, intense notes of lime blossom, white peach, and citrus zest. Full-bodied, rich and round, it's bright, zesty and long on the finish.
