THIS WINE IS A PRESELL FOR STOCK SOON INBOUND. OUR STAFF WILL CONTACT YOU WHEN YOUR ORDER IS READY FOR PICKUP/SHIPPING/DELIVERY.

100% Pinot Noir. The Freedom Hill Vineyard is an exceptional vineyard tucked into the southeastern slope of an ancient sedimentary seabed, in the newly created Mt. Pisgah, Polk County AVA in Oregon's Willamette Valley. The AVA is sheilded by the chilling Van Duzer winds from the west, resulting in a slightly warmer microclimate than the neighboring Eola-Amity Hills. This bottling is made of adjacent 24-year old blocks of Pommard and Dijon Pinot Noir Clones, which are cofermented. The wine opens up with layers of wild raspberry, roasted plum and violets, with hints of earl grey tea and anise in the background. Its silky tannins provide structure, depth, and incredible balance. It truly showcases Freedom Hill's potential as a vineyard site. We recommend pairing it with a slow roasted duck, served with a roasted fennel bulb and a cashew crema.

Details

From the Winery: Established in 1982 by Dan and Helen Dusschee and now tended by their son Dustin, the iconic Freedom Hill Vineyard stands as a testament to sustainable stewardship. Tucked into the gentle southeast slope of an uplifted, ancient sedimentary seabed in the Coastal Range, this site is shielded from the Van Duzer wind, resulting in a slightly warmer microclimate compared to the neighboring Eola-Amity Hills.

Freedom Hill’s distinguished terroir is highlighted in the new Mt. Pisgah, Polk County AVA within the expansive Willamette Valley. From this exceptional vineyard, we source two adjacent 24-year-old Pinot Noir blocks of Pommard and Dijon 115, which are picked and co-fermented together.

Freedom Hill Pinot Noir opens generously with its signature intensity, revealing layers of wild raspberries, roasted plums, and the delicate allure of candied violets. It boldly unravels its flavors with an interplay of fruit alongside Earl Grey tea and anise. A luxurious texture emerges, intertwined with hints of earthy tobacco and a stony minerality. Silky tannins provide structure and depth, highlighting a balance between the wine's power and elegance. This vintage embodies Freedom Hill's distinctive character and remarkable potential.
