2004 | Panther Creek Cellars | 'Freedom Hill Vineyard' Pinot Noir

Perfumed layers of super-ripe cherries, plums, and violets with just a touch of spicy oak.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: This wine confounded me. I fell in love with its medium-to-dark ruby-colored aromatics at the winery. It revealed perfumed layers of super-ripe cherries, plums, and violets with just a touch of spicy oak. On the palate its seductive personality offered chewy-textured, mouth-coating, and concentrated waves of gorgeously sweet red and black fruits. Revisited three times since, it twice smelled of spicy apple cider, was completely disjointed, and had a hard tannic finish.

Producer Information

Located in the heart of the Willamette Valley, Panther Creek Cellars has been producing signature Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay wines since 1986. The winery has been recognized for its signature blends as well as single vineyard designate wines. “Panther Creek has a storied history and I’m eager to build on that legacy,” says Tony Rynders, winemaker. “I have been making wine in Oregon for almost 20 years, and I look forward to beginning this chapter with one of Oregon’s most established Pinot Noir producers, founded by one of the wine industry’s great heroes, Ken Wright.” Our goal, in making Panther Creek wine, is simple: We hope that each wine will express the personality of its vintage and character of its vineyard. This expressiveness is the essence of great Oregon Pinot Noir. Our wines are crafted to complement a variety of foods, as well as be enjoyed on their own. We believe that great Pinot Noir can be enjoyed as a young, fresh wine that showcases ripe, sweet fruit, as well as an older, mature wine that features unparalleled complexity and beauty.
