The flagship white from the estate, the 2016 Chardonnay FOUR was brought up in 20% new French oak. It's similar in color to the other releases and has a touch of toasty, smoky oak as well as ample orchard fruits, white peach, white flowers, and salty minerality. Beautifully layered, textured, medium-bodied, and elegant on the palate, it's shows the charming, rounded style of the vintage nicely yet still has vibrant acidity.

The 2016 Chardonnay Four is a selection of the best barrels in the cellar. Stylistically, it is closest to the Golden Slope, with which it shares an approach built on texture and breath. Although a pretty wine, the Four is not as detailed as the best Chardonnays in this range, nor it is meaningfully different from the Golden Slope. (AG)

Notes

Founded by Jeff and Nikki Nelson, Liquid Farm built its reputation around cool-climate Chardonnay from the Sta. Rita Hills, with a stylistic reference point closer to Burgundy and Chablis than to richer California traditions. The "Four" bottling refers to a blend drawn from four sites within the appellation.
