Often said, and it bears repetition, all great wine starts in the vineyard. Liquid Farm’s name reflects their strong belief in that philosophy. It is truly all about place in combination with the highest quality fruit and letting the varietal and regional typicity of the wine shine through from vineyard to glass... liquid from farming.

Liquid Farm allows wines to develop on their own with little intervention, minimal, or no new oak and use no additives or machines to manipulate the wines inherent personality. The winemakers are committed to blending from the handful of special vineyards they work with in the small AVA of Santa Rita Hills to produce a collection of Chardonnays that are markedly different expressions, but with the same thread of intense minerality and salinity they started with in the vineyard.

Includes a five-course dinner with wine pairings. Exclusive of service charge and tax.
