Note di degustazione
The 2014 Chardonnay CIX Estate is a sensual, delicate wine. It has aged well but also appears to be at its first plateau of maturity. Pear, white flowers, mint, tangerine oil and spice build gently in the glass. This is so refined.

Lastly, the virtually perfect 2014 Chardonnay Cix Estate, planted with a Montrachet clone on Goldridge soils, again exhibits amazing intensity, notes of wet gravel interwoven with apple blossom, caramelized citrus, apricot, white peach and honeysuckle. It is full-bodied, multidimensional and a profound glass of Chardonnay. Oct 2016, www.robertparker.com

Dense and racy in style, the 2014 Chardonnay CIX Vineyard is one of the more approachable wines in this lineup. Here the Montrachet clone gives a Chardonnay with good up-front intensity and plenty of power. Although attractive, the CIX doesn't quite have the complexity, nuance or persistence of the best wines in the range.
