2004 Freeman Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

Good medium red. Red fruit aromas complicated by notes of earthy underbrush; shows the warmer character of the Russian River Valley following the Sonoma Coast example. Supple and lush, with intriguing mineral and cinnamon notes, along with a suggestion of tangerine peel. Solidly structured, rather Burgundian pinot, with a plump texture but sound balancing acidity.
