Producer: Aubert Ratings: WA 99 VN 94 Vintage: 2014 Size: 750ml ABV: 15% Varietal: Chardonnay Country/Region: United States, California The 2014 CIX Estate Chardonnay conveys the quintessential hybrid of Sonoma Coast and Grand Cru White Burgundy. CIX’s ethereal blend of subtleties and power are tightly wound into one. Please note the greenish hue on the edge of the glass, which is indicative of the health of the wine. Subtle aromatics of powdered citrus and jasmine are complimented by youthful minerality. The evolution of the wine begins to display more expressive notes of baked pear, straw and fresh herbs. The palate reveals more tension with vin-de-garde acidity. The 2014 CIX is built to age with its combination of power, tension and structure, and will cellar for the next 10 to 15 years. The wine has a slight hazy clarity showing our commitment to minimal intervention winemaking. Reviews: Wine Advocate: 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. Vinous: 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.

The finish is concentrated and persistent with perfect cut and length. The 2017 Lauren drinks well now but will enhance with extended cellar aging. The wine is slightly hazy showing our commitment to minimal intervention winemaking. Reviews: Wine Advocate: Mark Aubert notes that this is a complex vineyard. It is planted to four different clones: two Old Wente clones, Mount Eden and Corton Charlemagne. The 2017 Chardonnay Lauren Estate starts out with a quiet intensity of ripe pears, apricot tart and spiced apples notes, growing exponentially to reveal a whole spectrum of savory/earthy nuances: marzipan, cashews, yeast extract, oolong tea, chalk dust and nutmeg. Full-bodied, the palate truly lets off the flavor fireworks, giving up loads of citrus, stone fruit, pears and savory flavors plus a racy backbone, finishing very long and very moreish. Vinous: One of the highlights in this range, the 2017 Chardonnay Lauren Vineyard is also the most gracious and lifted of Mark Aubert's Chardonnays. Lemon peel, white flowers, mint, chalk and white pepper give the wine lift and perfume. Delicate, understated and classy to the core, the Lauren has it all. The 2017 is a stunning wine.

Eden clones on Goldridge soils. It prances out of the glass with showy scents of fresh nectarines, pink grapefruit, lime leaves and preserved lemons plus hints of struck flint and wet pebbles.

Producer: Aubert Ratings: WA 96-98 VN 94-96 Vintage: 2019 Size: 750ml ABV: 15% Varietal: Chardonnay Country/Region: United States, California A gorgeous deep ruby with purple hues, the 2019 CIX Pinot Noir captivates with wild red berries and black cherry compote interlaced with notions of sage, rosemary, and steeped Ceylon tea. A distinctly floral note completes the nose while the entry entices the palate with blood orange extract, spiced black fruits, and an intriguing mineral complexity. This brilliant wine is as graceful as it is bold, an unmistakable reflection of the exceptional terroir. Suggested drinking window is 2021 through 2034. Reviews: Wine Advocate: A barrel sample, the 2019 Chardonnay CIX Estate comes bounding out of the glass with grapefruit, green mango and orange peel notes backed up by wafts of talc, chopped nuts and a lifted, aromatic, floral perfume. It is full-bodied and intensely flavored in the mouth with a lively backbone cutting through the taut, dense citrus and tropical fruit flavors, finishing long and fragrant. Vinous: The 2019 Chardonnay CIX Vineyard is powerful, explosive and also very phenolic in feel. There is real density in the CIX. Lemon oil, marzipan, white flowers, ripe pear and mint are all beautifully delineated. The CIX is deep but also wonderfully transparent. The cool growing season yielded a Chardonnay of remarkable finesse. This site, planted with Montrachet Clone Chardonnay, was the last to be picked.

Reviews: Wine Advocate: 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.

Vinous: The 2018 Chardonnay CIX Vineyard is a seamless, gorgeous beauty. Orchard fruit, mint, white pepper and floral notes all run through this super-expressive, alluring Chardonnay from Mark Aubert. In the glass, the CIX is understated and nuanced rather than overt.

The 2021 growing season was written like any other classic vintage – normal rainfall, a warm growing season absent of heat waves, steady harvest, and optimal ripeness. But the chardonnays made in 2021 are an elite lineup of their own, crystalized in the vineyard’s signature. The 2021 Sonoma Coast makes it evidently clear these wines offer a new level of precision and focus. We anticipate there will be a lot of buzz around the vintage for many years to come.

The wine was bottled at the beginning of July 2020. Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, it starts out with beguiling scent notions of crushed rocks, tilled soil, truffles and garrigue over a core of kirsch, red currant jelly and black raspberries before giving way to a spicy, fragrant perfume of cardamom, Provence herbs and lavender. The full-bodied palate is super intense and fantastically layered, offering a rock-solid backbone of racy freshness and firm, fine-grained tannins. It finishes on a persistent earthy/ferrous note. Vinous: The 2019 Pinot Noir UV-SL Vineyard brings together some of the aromatic breadth of the UV with the textural resonance of the CIX. Rose petal, lavender, spice, menthol, kirsch and dark cherry fruit build in a Pinot that balances density, power and energy. Rich and layered in the glass, with striking inner perfume, the UV-SL is superb.

Producer: Platt Vineyard Ratings: 96 D 95 JS 98 VN Vintage: 2023 Size: 750ml ABV: 13.7% Varietal: Pinot Noir Country/Region: United States, California Produced from the blocks that harness both power and freshness, this wine’s chiseled structure and fruit density showcase why the Calera clone is such a perfect fit here and the predominant clone in the blend. The Estate Reserve translates the year and site with great transparency: deep and darkly colored while intensely concentrated and vibrant, this bottling captures the essence of Platt. For the Reserve bottling, we select lots that are pure, focused and with the longest ageing potential. Reviews: Like the Reserve Chardonnay, this represents a step up in terms of savoury complexity and sophistication but interestingly, despite the Reserve designation, none of that is overtly reliant on oak. Playing much less on fruit and more on earthy, savoury and textural qualities, this takes time to unfurl but, as it does so, shows spice and energy to match its density and layered fruit. The dominant fruit tone is a dark, dusky cherry note but it’s all fruit derived as this is entirely de-stemmed. Ripe and luxurious with lovely length. 97/100 – Matthew Hemming MW The 2023 Pinot Noir Estate Reserve stains the palate with an exotic mélange of blood orange, pomegranate, spice, new leather and cedar. A Pinot of tremendous density and sheer power, the 2023 Platt will need to shed some of its baby fat. This is a quintessential wine from one of the very greatest sites in the United States. 98/100 – Antonio Galloni Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, the 2023 Pinot Noir Estate Reserve slowly emerges with a graceful perfume of red roses, red currant jelly, fresh cranberries, and crushed rocks, followed by earthy nuances of moss and forest floor. The medium-bodied palate reveals jaw-dropping elegance and grace, featuring bright red berry and floral layers with firm yet silky tannins and a refreshing backbone, finishing long and earthy.

Cola, smoke and clove details show on the layered finish. Producer Information Kistler Vineyards is a wine producer in northern California's Sonoma County. Its considerable reputation is thanks largely to its robust, buttery Chardonnay wines, which have established Kistler as a cult winery since the 1980s. The company was founded in 1978 by Steve Kistler and remains a family-owned and operated winery. It is a relatively small producer, making just 35,000 cases annually, much of which is sold through its significant mailing list. Kistler's focus is the Burgundy varieties, making 10 vineyard-designated Chardonnay wines and four designated Pinot Noir wines. The fruit comes from three AVAs within Sonoma: Sonoma Coast, Sonoma Mountain and Carneros (which overlaps with the Napa Valley AVA). Kistler is seen as one of the pioneers of the buttery, fruit-driven Chardonnays that have come to be closely associated with California. In the winery, the use of small, new-oak barriques and malolactic fermentation have been used over the years to achieve this style of wine. Recent trends have seen a move away from this style, however, and Kistler is beginning to experiment with making more restrained styles of the variety.

Well balanced and linear with a savory finish. Charming. Drink now or hold. Producer Information Flowers Vineyard & Winery is a Californian wine producer, within the Sonoma Coast AVA (American Viticultural Area). It specializes in producing high-quality wine from the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grape varieties. The flagship wine from the Flowers' wine portfolio is the Moon Select, which is named after the process of selecting the best parcels of Chardonnay fruit from the estate vineyard. It is fermented in French oak barrels with the use of wild yeasts from the winery and vineyards prior to barrel-aging for 14 months. Multiple other Chardonnay wines accompany two Pinot Noir wines in the portfolio. There is a strong maritime influence across the range with the estate vineyards as well as externally sourced fruit all within a close proximity to the Pacific coastline. The estate was founded in 1989 when Pennsylvania nursery owners Walt and Joan Flowers purchased 321 acres (130 hectares) of land on the northern Sonoma Coast. Flowers' have two estate vineyards that were gradually planted between 1991 and 2004, and now have a total of 69 acres (28 ha) of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and a tiny parcel of Pinot Meunier.

Producer: Aubert Ratings: WA 97 WS 96 Vintage: 2020 Size: 750ml ABV: 15% Varietal: Chardonnay Country/Region: United States, California The 2020 CIX is breath-taking in its singular expression of terroir. The beguiling bouquet captivates with aromas of spring flowers, peach pie, lemon tea, and fresh brioche accented with notions of the vineyard’s signature mineral perfume. An umami sensation on the palate complements endless layers of orchard fruit oils with a hint of coriander seed. Broad and concentrated, this vin de garde will flourish with extended cellaring time. The wine is slightly hazy showing our commitment to minimal intervention winemaking. Reviews: Wine Advocate: Another terrific year for this bottling, the 2020 Chardonnay CIX Estate—from Montrachet-selection budwood on vines planted in 2008, and matured in 75% new French oak—is lightly toasty, then tropical, with yellow peach, possibly even mango notes, balanced by bright, lime-like acids. It's full-bodied, creamy and rich, yet not heavy at all, with great energy and lift on the finish. Best After 2022. Wine Spectator: Complex, detailed and layered, with terrific intensity to the pineapple, mango and peach flavors, which are joined by details of salted butterscotch, dried fennel, star anise, mineral and honeycomb. Packs plenty of juiciness on the long, expressive finish that just goes on and on. Drink now.

Full-bodied, rich, plush and dangerously decadent in the mouth, the palate delivers loads of cerebral layers with a very long cinnamon and spice-laced finish.

Reviews: Wine Advocate: A relatively new vineyard label for Aubert (the third vintage to be produced), the 2019 Chardonnay Powder House comes from eight acres of what are now estate-owned vines planted in 2013 to Hyde Old Wente and Mt. Eden clones on Goldridge soils. It prances out of the glass with showy scents of fresh nectarines, pink grapefruit, lime leaves and preserved lemons plus hints of struck flint and wet pebbles. The full-bodied palate possesses an almost electric intensity with bags of nervy citrusy flavors and a very lively backbone, finishing with great length and oodles of minerals. This should age fantastically! Vinous: The 2019 Chardonnay Powder House, from a site in Forestville, is one of the most lifted, gracious wines in the range. White flowers, mint, orchard fruit and white pepper give the Powder House its distinctly brilliant aromatics. It is an especially translucent, taut Chardonnay within this hugely impressive range.

Producer: Aubert Ratings: WA 98 Vintage: 2021 Size: 750ml ABV: 15% Varietal: Chardonnay Country/Region: United States, California The 2021 CIX is stately and opulent. Intense chamomile and honeysuckle florals mix with pure golden apple, wildflower honey, and crystallized lemon for a wine that is staggeringly complex and unified. On the palate, dusty minerals hint at the volcanic origins of the site, and toasty notes of almond baklava emerge from its dense core. Richly textured, the wine endlessly dances across the palate with both freshness and grás. Reviews: Wine Advocate: From a vineyard that borders the source of Aubert's Lauren bottling, there are 1,200 cases of the 2021 Chardonnay CIX Estate. Matured in 75% new French oak, this review is based on a tank sample awaiting bottling. Planted to a Montrachet selection in 2008, there's just a hint of fumé character, those smoky, mocha notes accenting ripe peaches and bright lime pith. It's characteristically full-bodied, generous, creamy and lush, yet with enough acidity to keep it clean and fresh on the finish. Producer Information Aubert is a small Chardonnay and Pinot Noir estate that makes wine from single-vineyard sites in Napa Valley and Sonoma. It was founded by Mark and Teresa Aubert in 1999, and today, is considered to be one of California's cult producers.The first vintage of Aubert was in 2000 – a Chardonnay sourced from the Ritchie Vineyard in Russian River Valley. It quickly received acclaim for its full-blown, hedonistic style and was pivotal for company's success. Although the vineyard is no longer within the company's holdings, the Burgundian syle in which the Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay was produced, remains as the production style throughout the wine portfolio. The chardonnay wines are barrel-fermented and aged in French oak, a majority of which is new.Aubert's portfolio has since expanded to an array of single-vineyard Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines, sourced from multiple vineyard sites in Russian River and Rutherford as well as Napa and Sonoma. Each wine in Aubert's portfolio is named after the parcel of vineyard from which it is sourced and production is extremely limited. The Lauren vineyard is eight acres (3.2 hectares) of Chardonnnay, named after the founder's daughter and was the first estate vineyard of Aubert....

The sleek, structured palate resonates with notes of raspberry, pomegranate pulp, river rock, and lavender. Producer Information In 2001 after finding a very intriguing 40 acre parcel in a remote part of the northern Sonoma Coast, I established Aston Estate with partners Fred Schrader (Schrader Cellars, Boars’ View) and Charles Sweeney (Vine Cliff). After planting 14 acres later that summer, we vinifed our first vintage in 2004 under the Aston Experimental label. As the years passed and the partnership evolved, the one thing that never changed was my commitment to the Aston Estate project. In the beginning, the style was a bit bigger reflecting what was currently happening on the coast, the unpredictability of the weather, younger vine characteristics and the logistics of hauling the fruit out of this remote site. With better access to the site, more vineyard activity in the area and older vines, it has become easier to take the quality of the fruit to exactly where we want it out at the Estate. There have been a few turning points out here in terms of wine quality. After tasting every single wine we’ve made from the estate a couple months ago, it was clear 2009 and 2015 ushered in new eras of quality. We think we may see the same thing with 2017 which will be offered later this summer. Earlier this year, I was offered the chance to own Aston outright. I knew immediately there was no way I could let this get away. After investing 20 years of effort into this now mature 14 acre plot of Pinot Noir, I’m proud to announce this will be part of the growing winemaking family for years to come.
