Freeman Vineyard & Winery is the fruition of a 20-year dream shared by Ken and Akiko Freeman to craft cool climate CA Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Aged for 11 months in French oak (about 25% new). Aromas of berry fruits with tea and tobacco notes. On the palate blackberry and cherry with tobacco and tea spice, soft tannins, well balanced, vivid acidity on lingering finish ending with earthy tones. Will keep in cellar for some time. — 6 years ago

Inky plum colors rightfully predict a delicious, complex full bodied beauty. A bargain hunters dream. — 7 years ago

Began as a dream of 2 friends, Ed Selyem & Burt Williams, who pursued weekend winemaking as a hobby in 1979 in a garage in Forestville, CA, and made their first commercial vintage in 1981. Ruby with complex aromas of black & red berries with subtle spice scents. On the palate cherry and strawberry with citrus, cacao, vanilla spice and toasty notes. Aged on French Oak, well balanced, savory, round tannins, lingering nicely ending with some earthy mineral tone, OR style. Has room to age. Very nice! — 7 years ago

Excellent wine for the price tag. Not very complex but still a nice house or table wine. Red fruit and pepper aromas and also the first flavors initially on the palate. Not much on the finish except for tannins and acid. — 7 years ago

Greenish color for supporting Mexico in this morning's World Cup fixture. Ok a Mexican beer would have been more appropriate but I know what I prefer. — 7 years ago

A really enjoyable bottle. Smooth yet flavorful. We had this with some butter crackers and truffle brie. Before we knew it the bottle was empty. Too bad I’ll never find this wine again since it was part of a wine club delivery from years ago. Remember this friends, the best things in life come unexpectedly and are rare. — 6 years ago

KWN Wine 7. Another amazing treat courtesy of Moff. Unmistakeable Bordeaux. Lots of blackberry, leather, smooth and sexy. 19 years and going strong. A first growth dream. Another one of my favorites. — 7 years ago

THE. BEST. DOMESTIC. CHARD!!!!!! Yes, yes, yes. I'm blown away. This is the best domestic chard I've ever drank. This particular vintage is killer. I could poor this in a lineup of top notch Meursault and none would be the wiser, that's how good this is. Intense smoke/funk brought on by minerality that most domestic producers could only dream of. A legendary wine in my book. @June's All Day, Austin TX — 8 years ago

In 2005 Marie and Frédéric Chauffray came across the perfect plot of land—25 acres on the plateau of Arboras in Terrasses du Larzac, situated in the Langeudoc. They sold the prestigious wine shop they owned outside Paris and embarked upon the dream of making wine, together founding Domaine de La Réserve d'O. Berry fruit and cacao notes. Cherry and mocha with spice and fine tannins. Lingering finish with ending with mineral notes. — 8 years ago

This wine is coming together with time. Great nose of baked fruit. Cherry with moderate plus acid on the palate. Not complex, but a straightforward Pinot joy. — 9 years ago
