2021 CIX Estate Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Our first ever Estate Pinot Noir, the CIX is Grand Cru Aubert. This Pinot is our most reminiscent of red Burgundy. This cooler site in Forestville creates an ethereal, delicate, and elegant wine.

Mark Aubert’s Tasting Notes

The 2021 CIX Pinot Noir is sanguine and grounded. Heady marionberry, kirsch, and blood orange radiate from the glass. Complex, earth-driven tones of Ceylon tea, oyster shell and sous bois slowly unfurl with time. These hallmark earthy tones are the calling card of the elusive, white volcanic soils found here. A full body envelops the already polished tannic structure at the core of the wine. Suggested drinking window is 2024 through 2036.
