98 points James Suckling: "Oyster shell and mother of pearl and dried apple. Some lemon undertones. Full body, very dense and powerful. Complex. The finish just melts. Exciting white. Drink now. (1/3/18)"
97 points Robert Parker: "The 2013 Chardonnay Cix Estate, also from a Montrachet clone planted on Goldridge soils, displays plenty of peach, apricot, caramelized apples, citrus blossom and wet stones in a full-bodied, powerful, rich and pure, precise style. This is another beauty from 2013 that should easily age for 10+ years. (Dec 2015)"
96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2013 Chardonnay CIX Vineyard is another reticent wine, but there is plenty of depth, volume and raciness. With time in the glass, deeper, soil-inflected notes, graphite, chamomile and honey open up, adding considerable complexity and nuance. Bright, saline notes punctuate the finish. The CIX starts off slow, but then really accelerates with air. Drink: 2017-2027. (Jan 2015)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "Richly aromatic, with a riveting mix of peach and citrus blossom flavors and white peach, lemon, grapefruit, green apple and honeydew notes, ending with a kiss of wet stone and toasty oak that’s so subtle you have to pay attention to catch it. Drink now. 850 cases made. (4/22/15)"
