Aubert CIX Vineyards Chardonnay 2018

$189

CIX stands for 109, because this was originally called “Parcel 109” when Aubert bought the vineyard. Planted in 2008 to Montrachet clone, the 2018 Chardonnay CIX Estate slips sensuously from the glass with beguiling scents of apple blossoms, honeysuckle and orange peel over a core of ripe Bosc pears, coriander seed, white pepper and shaved almonds plus a touch of talc. Full-bodied, rich and seductive, it has seamless freshness and the most beautifully perfumed personality, finishing long and fragrant. Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Bolder style chard as expected. Beautiful wine by itself, but better when paired with seafood, IMO.

Complex and lingering. Grabs hold of your tongue and it’s always an exciting ride. Fleshy fruit notes mixed with perfect acidity. A winner.
