finishing long and layered

A lot of spice and sweet cocoa

rose petal and subtle sous-bois scents

with vines planted in the early 1960s

It’s structured and rather powerful

2023 | Liquid Farm Golden Slope Chardonnay | Sta Rita Hills Aglianico del Vulture finishing long and layeredAnother gem, the 2021 Chardonnay Golden Slope has honeyed orange, brioche, chalky mineral, and spicy notes that blossom with time in the glass. These carry to a richly textured, layered, concentrated Chardonnay with a stacked mid palate, beautifully integrated acidity, and a great finish. It almost has a red wine like sense of structure and will benefit from 2 3 years in the cellar. 94 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
