NSW COOL CLIMATE ITALIAN WINE DINNER
The stellar team at Pendolino Restaurant – chef Nino Zoccali and sommelier Cristian Casarin – are showcasing NSW Italian varietal wines at their Sydney Good Food Month 2020 NSWCoolClimateWineDinner.
The exciting Aussie Italo wines featuring at  this event are from… (drum roll) 5-Star FREEMAN (Hilltops) and Tertini Wines (Southern Highlands).
Winemaker Brian Freeman will introduce his selected brace: FREEMAN Fortuna Pinot Grigio Plus, FREEMAN Nebbiolo, FREEMAN Secco Rondinella Corvina and FREEMAN Dolcino.
So if you fancy a buon gusto night out that includes Veal Agnolotti paired with dual Nebbiolos and Duck Magret with two rare savoury Italo-inspired reds, hit the booking button… It’s time for a convivial night out…

REAL REVIEW RATES FREEMAN NEBBIOLO 2016 IN AUSTRALIA’S TOP FIVE

FREEMAN doesnt make a habit of entering wine shows – that said, it’s pleasing to garner recognition for wines in the portfolio.

The Real Review run by wine writer Huon Hooke has rated the new release FREEMAN Nebbiolo 2016 a hefty 92 POINTS that pops it into Number 4 on his list of Top Aussie Nebbiolos.

‘Medium to full red colour with a trace of purple. The bouquet is earthy, meaty and forward, soft and mellowing, with a twist of the peppercorn grinder. The palate is medium-bodied and savoury, with a light kick of firm tannin at the end. A suggestion of raspberry jam and a sweet fruit core. Decent length. A Very smart nebb that already drinks well.’

APOLOGIES THIS DINNER HAS BEEN POSTPONED!

Given the current health crisis FREEMAN and the team at Hotel Realm have decided to postpone this event.

We will review and look to reschedule later in the year when hopefully gatherings are considered safe for all.

Meanwhile please stay well!

More details to come…

Along with relaxation of intra-state travel FREEMAN Cellar Door has re-opened for bespoke tastings from our mostly Italian varietal inspired portfolio.

To comply with public health precautions we are limiting each visiting group size to four adults for seated tastings at the big table in our small cellar space. We apologise if this limit may cause inconvenience and are happy to offer back-back tastings if you have a larger group.

If you should be in our region and care to phone through an order before passing by, we will be very happy for you to collect pre-ordered wines from the Cellar Door.

Despite these arrangements please consider delaying a visit if you are feeling unwell, have had known contact with someone with Covid-19 or have recently returned from overseas. At FREEMAN we take both your (and our) health seriously. We have a registered Covid Safety Plan.

Please do call 0417 733715 if you would like to order wines.

When this is all over…

Remember the vineyard is 90 mins or so west of central Canberra, between Young and Harden.

Look for the Prunevale sign when driving along Kingsvale Rd…cross the defunct railway line, turn sharp right and you’ll spot the winery on the left. We look forward to welcoming you when our lives get back on track.

FREEMAN has again been awarded a prestigious 5 STAR RATING in the new 2020 edition of the HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION.

The two stand-outs this year are 95 POINT rated  FREEMAN Secco Rondinella Corvina 2014 and FREEMAN Robusta Corvina 2013, both  capturing serious attention.

FREEMAN Secco 2014: ‘Consistently good each year but this ’14 release is particularly noteworthy. The word impeccable springs to mind…’

FREEMAN Robusta 2013: ‘A riot of spice of every kind…Very well done in a new frontier.’

Other FREEMAN ratings include:

FREEMAN Rondo Rosé 2018: 93 POINTS

FREEMAN Sangiovese 2017: 93 POINTS

FREEMAN Nebbiolo 2015: 93 POINTS
