Chardonnay 2010
Sonoma Coast, California
AVAILABILITY: SPEC, Limited Stock Available
94 POINTS eRobertParker.com
"A bit more layered than the Pastorale, the 2010 Chardonnay Estate Freestone Vineyard caresses the palate from beginning to end. Lemon, pastry, white flowers, crushed rocks and a whisper of French oak all emerge from the glass in the seamless, totally polished Chardonnay. The aromas and flavors remain bright, focused and beautifully articulated from start to finish. This is another fabulous wine from Joseph Phelps. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2018." April 2013

Pinot Noir 2010
Sonoma Coast, California
AVAILABILITY: SPEC, Limited Stock Available
94 POINTS eRobertParker.com
"The 2010 Pinot Noir Estate Freestone Vineyard is more fruit-driven than the Pastorale. Immediate and juicy, the 2010 jumps from the glass with layers of radiant red fruit. I would prefer to drink the 2010 while the fruit remains front and center. This supple, resonant Pinot is another gorgeous wine from Phelps. The 2010 is a blend of roughly equal parts Pastorale and Quarter Moon Vineyards. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2020." April 2013

FREESTONE VINEYARD
The Freestone Vineyard Estate in the Sonoma Coast appellation is comprised of three distinct properties: Pastorale Vineyard, Quarter Moon Vineyard and Ferguson Vineyard. The vineyards lie only 5-8 miles from the Pacific Ocean west of Bodega Bay, providing a long and cool growing season. Goldridge soils, dramatic elevations, careful attention to clonal and rootstock selections and use of biodynamic farming principles result in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir that is distinctly Freestone.
The first vines were planted in 2000 with phased replantings occurring through 2007, in part due to the challenges of the site and also to diversify clonal selection and rootstocks. Thus far the vineyard diversity at Freestone has produced wine of tremendous complexity, offering layers of earth, jam, spice and minerality. Today the oldest vines are eight years old with over eighty percent of the estate planted to Pinot Noir.
The principles of biodynamic farming are applied at Freestone and form the basis of self-sustainable winegrowing. Biodynamic farming maintains, preserves and ecologically enhances the natural vineyard environment by combining natural farming practices - composting, recycling nutrients, carefully managed irrigation, the use of cover crops - with natural remedies for deficiencies and seasonal changes such as simple, natural non-toxic biological field and foliar sprays. The results of all this work contribute to the cultivation and preservation of soil health, which in turn affect fruit quality - all while respecting the environment.
