2021 Aubert Chardonnay CIX Vineyard

97 The Wine Advocate

"The 2021 Chardonnay CIX Estate is a more classic example than the 2022 version, but there's a strong familial resemblance. Crushed stone and hints of almond-hazelnut skin appear on the nose, alongside fruitier notes of pineapple and white peach. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied, generous and rounded, then finishes fresh and vibrant, with a huge whack of energizing lime zest on the finish."
