We have just heard that Freeman Vineyards has been selected as a finalist in the annual Young Gun of Wine2024 Australian Vineyard of the Year Awards.
It’s 25 years since Brian Freeman founded his select site single Altura Vineyard in the NSW Hilltops, based on his assessment of the region’s terrific viticultural potential. Two decades-plus later that foresight is showing results. You know the one about Rome…
The Awards celebrate heritage, sustainability, innovation and wine quality and seek to profile Australia’s top viticulturists and distinguished and mature single vineyards.
The FREEMAN Altura Vineyard dates back to 1976 and is planted with many unusual varieties – from Rondinella and Corvina, to Furmint and Harslevelu as well as significant Italian origin varieties like Prosecco, Fiano, Sangiovese and Nebbiolo.
The Vineyard of the Year Awards ceremony will be held in Melbourne in mid-June and you can be sure the FREEMAN team will be flying the flag!
The team from Bill’s Fishhouse & Bar in Port Mac are running a series of UNCORKED Wine Dinners (under the banner TwoTripleFour) and first off the rank is FREEMAN!
17 SEPTEMBER, 6pm
An exciting 5-Course Menu will be accompanied by award-winning FREEMAN wines…
After welcoming glasses of Prosecco 2021 roll on to:
FREEMAN Vineyards is joining the posse of Hilltops vignerons heading to Sydney on 30 August to pour their latest and award-winner releases for the Sydney wine trade. On the FREEMAN tasting table will be Prosecco 2021, two Pet Nats, Bianco Pinot Grigio and its red stablemate FREEMAN Rosso, plus dual flagships FREEMAN Secco and FREEMAN Robusta crafted from estate grown Corvina grapes. In a nutshell, several fascinating wines, seeking to attract curious sommeliers.

The Real Review has just published its TOP AUSTRALIAN WINERIES 2022 list. FREEMAN Vineyards has again been rated one of the TOP WINERIES based on accumulated reviews over several years. That puts us apparently into the top 18% of the country’s wine producers, along with numerous household wine brands and some amazing smaller wine companies striving and punching high. As we try to do.
In fact, the mighty NSW Hilltops region rated three wine companies in the top tier…
