  We present and discuss properties of isospin asymmetric matter whose equation
of state is derived from recent high-quality chiral nucleon-nucleon potentials
and chiral effective three-nucleon forces. After a brief review of the chiral
few-nucleon forces which we adopt, we concentrate on the symmetry energy and
its density derivatives. We also explore the correlation between the symmetry
energy at saturation density and its slope parameter, L. We estimate the
truncation error across three orders of the chiral expansion for both the
symmetry energy as a function of density and the slope parameter. Through an
energy-density functional inspired by the liquid drop model, we establish a
simple connection to finite nuclei. Specifically, we address the symmetry
energy coefficient, the so-called reference (or equivalent) density, as well as
the neutron skin thickness for 208Pb and 48Ca.
