Robert Parker

"After a string of warm, dry vintages from 2014–2018, the 2019 vintage was a return to a classic growing season in the Willamette Valley, defined by cooler temperatures and rain in July and September. Re-tasting the 2019 Chardonnay Freedom Hill Vineyard, I remain convinced that the 2019s are a step above the 2021s—another cool, wet year that offered consistently high-quality wines yet offers a touch less definition and magic than the 2019s. This is the haute couture of the vertical, boasting pure, complex scents of peach complemented by nuances of candle smoke, marzipan, honey, acacia and spice. The palate balances deeply concentrated flavors with shimmery acidity and a luxuriously satiny texture, and it has a hauntingly long finish redolent of ginger and honey. Singular, expressive and youthful, it has a long life ahead." —Erin Brooks

"Walter Scott is able to source two hectares of fruit from the sedimentary soils of the Freedom Hill vineyard, including some of the older vines. The site is warm, yet Pahlow's reductive handling of the wine shows a bright, fresh character. The aromas are ripe apricots and quince with a bit of citrus and a saline quality that is very attractive. The ripeness of Freedom Hill endows the wine with impressive density and length, yet everything remains in perfect balance."

"This wine is sleek and aromatic, with a defining pungency that mixes citrus fruit and a hint of diesel, almost like a Sauvignon Blanc. Though picked early (as far as sugars are concerned), the wine is plenty ripe, fresh and zesty. Delicate flavors of green herbs, lemon rind, apple and pear are accented with a touch of toast. There's even a suggestion of cream in the finish, which bodes well for further aging. Drink from 2023 on." —Paul Gregutt
