A unanimous staff favorite. Freedom Hill - Ripe yet firm. Well made with nice layers of subtle cherry fruit and good depth. Beautiful, deep garnet color. Gorgeous, full and rich nose of dark cherry and cane berries.
Fruit is well-defined and shows great purity.
Full and viscous in the mouth with a substantial finish. A beautiful wine. Everyday quaffer and a best buy. Has a layer of fine tannins to lose, but has the vibrancy to warrant cellaring. The component fruit is largely from our newest dense plantings at the site, coming from Pommard and Wadenswil clones planted ten years before.
