  Last of 3 bottles. The two previous bottles were on top of other reviewers. This one was better.....I usually to not expect a white wine of this type to evolve like this, but this one did. Those with bottles left might want to give one a try right now.

  White flowers on the nose, the palate was lemon curd, peach and the right amount of oak keeping it in balance. Nice finish. Went well with the sushi it was served with.

  Wow! Big gorgeous - reminiscent of Kongsgaard. Lots of depth and flavour (honey, lemon, hints of caramel, peaches) but great balance and structure - this one will last - would love to taste in a few years. No sense of astringency here, though the acidity is there and in good balance.

  I don't care what the scores imply, I thoroughly enjoy Freeman wines. No surprises here, it's a balance of oak and fruit, of butter and lemon with a nose of vanilla. A classic Cali chard made very well.

  A really nice chardonnay, lemon curd, melon, a hint of pear and a little oak leads to a nice smooth finish. It is much better served closer to room temperature.
