WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Freedom Hill is known for dark, elaborately pigmented wines with a wealth of fruit, generous mouthfeel and a dollop of tannins that gives the wine framework and dimension. While not a lightweight this is far from some bruising or sultry wine. This has intense red/black fruits, earthy spices and just a little bit of grip. This will be excellent in its youth but will have solid footing and great upside for well over a decade.
TASTING NOTES:
A lighter-bodied Pinot Noir for lovers of the simple pleasures of acidity with a bite, and the tart flavor qualities of persimmons and Morello cherries. Aromas of raspberries, earthy petrichor, toasted almonds and cedar oil are inviting.
