Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 92 points

The explosive dark cherry aromatics of the medium to dark ruby-colored 1998 Pinot Noir Freedom Hill Vineyard lead to a medium to full-bodied, velvety-textured, and lush personality. This decadent, chewy, and broad wine bursts on the palate with copious quantities of red cherries. It is well-balanced, intensely flavored, and harmonious. Projected maturity: 2003-2010+.
