Medium pigment extraction, purple red. Fresh cherry aromas with hints of dried herbs. Phenol or bay leaf-like note on finish. A rich take on Oregon Pinot.

Freedom Hill. Splendid wine. More mid-palette, richer flavor profile. Much better on day 2. Finish skips off a bit earlier than I would have expected. Pretty acidic and rather light tannins.

Dec 3rd, 2021Purple red, medium pigment extraction, very good clarity. Barrel wood, cherry fruit leather notes in nose. Tart layered bing cherry flavor with length and slightly bitter seed tannin, mild skin astringency on finish. Good acidity and structure, lovely, well-defined contrasting skin tannin texture with rounded mouthfeel. Very nice wine, well balanced display of fruit and tannins. Age worthy, but drinkable enough now. Decant a couple of hours; you’ll be rewarded by greater depth and length of cherry flavor. A gift from my brother, for which I am indeed grateful.

16’ Walter Scott Freedom Hill -Black cherry, cherry, floral, earthiness. Bright acidity that needs a few years to calm down . Not quite as good as the 15 will be.

Stealth structure, good wood integration, plenty of fruit. Better in 3-5 years.

Too young and prefer the WS whites to the reds. Not bad, but everything was not together and never showed any focus.
