The Freedom Hill Vineyard is set at roughly 500 feet and is located 10 miles southwest of Salem. The wine is sourced from two blocks, one planted in 2004 with Pommard and Wädenswil and one planted in 2008 with clone 777. The Pinot aged 16 months in French oak (26% new) prior to bottling. This wine begins with aromas of tarragon, red raspberry, red cherry pie and orange rind. There are flavors of black cherry, black truffle, forest floor, and red raspberry with a tangy and long finish and brilliant structure. Absolutely delicious wine. that will only improve with a few years in the bottle. (Best 2016-2027) - January, 2016 (OB)
