Freestone Winery is nearly complete

Freestone Update: Winery & Guest Center

Nearing Completion

Flowering Freestone Vines

The dream of creating a Pinot Noir estate began taking shape in 1999, when 80 acres of Pinot Noir and 19 acres of Chardonnay were planted in the Freestone area. This year, with the Freestone Winery and Guest Center almost complete, the dream is about to be realized. Located in the midst of the vineyards, the winery was designed to blend into its surroundings, and is scheduled to be operational this fall in time for the 2007 harvest.

Freestone Guest Center

A beautiful guest center has been constructed out of an existing redwood building at the corner of Bohemian and Bodega Highways. Andrea Phelps, Bill Phelp’s wife, has designed and outfitted the interior with simple, elegant Country French furnishings, and exterior landscaping has been designed and installed.

Biodynamic program

Kim Jackson, Freestone’s Sales & Hospitality Director, is planning a series of educational seminars on the growing region and our biodynamic program, as well as tastings of the wines. Local interest in the guest center is high and we hope to open in late spring or early summer of this year. In the meantime, these pictures provide a progress report of this exciting new project.
