2023 | Liquid Farm Golden Slope Chardonnay | Sta Rita Hills Aldo Rainoldi this full-bodiedAnother 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
