Aubin Vert is a white wine grape cultivar grown in the Lorraine region of France. [ [http://en.mimi.hu/wine/aubin_blanc.html Cultivar database] ] Small vineyards are found in Bulligny, Bruley, Pagney and Rozérieulles. Within the last century, it has also been grown in Thiaucourt-Regniéville, d'Euvezin and Magny. [ [http://www.chautauquaorganics.com/grape_index.html Grape varieties article] ]

DNA fingerprinting research at the University of California, Davis has also identified the Aubin vert as a relative of the Aligoté, Auxerrois, Bachet noir, Beaunoir, Franc Noir de la-Haute-Saône, Gamay Blanc Gloriod, Gamay noir, Melon, Knipperlé, Peurion, Roublot, and Sacy grape varieties.

Aubin Vert is a disappearing cultivar, due in part to the bunches and grapes being small. The bunches tend to be cylindrical and limp. While the varietal grows strongly, production is irregular. Wines of the Aubin Vert are often middle quality.
