Freeman, Pinot Noir, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley

Ken and Akiko Freeman founded their winery in 2001, in pursuit of a more elegant, nuanced style of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay than they’d been finding elsewhere around California. Eventually they settled on an area in the cold, western reaches of the Russian River Valley. The Freeman Pinot Noirs are always refined and elegant, with a delicacy that doesn’t get lost among the wisps of cherry fruit and forest floor flavours in the glass.
