WINE DESCRIPTION
Freja Cellars is devoted to crafting exceptional artisan Pinot Noir wines from its sustainably farmed estate vineyards. Adhering to the classic Burgundian style, Freja emphasizes that vineyard practices shape 90% of a wine’s characteristics, resulting in minimal handling and gravity-driven processing in the winery. The wines, distinctly reflective of Oregon’s terroir, draw inspiration from the Côte de Beaune Burgundies, particularly Volnay, with a focus on elegance, rich color, medium body, and a silky, long finish. Named after Freja, the Norse goddess of love and fertility, the winery honors both Burgundy's legacy and the region’s pioneering spirit.

The flavors of cherry, raspberry and vanilla come through in a balanced, harmonious way. Its complexity and depth of character make it a great choice for any occasion.

ORIGINS
Winery: Freja Cellars
Region: Oregon
Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, located between Washington to the north and California to the south. It is known for its diverse landscape of forests, mountains, rivers, and high desert, and for its vibrant wine industry.
Oregon's wine industry dates back to the mid-1800s, when the first vineyards were planted in the Willamette Valley. The region was largely forgotten until the 1960s, when a group of pioneering winemakers began to experiment with Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties. Since then, Oregon has become one of the most important wine regions in the United States, with over 500 wineries and more than 1,000 vineyards.CUSTOMER RATING
