Every bottle of Akiko’s Cuvée tells a story.

Named in honor of Akiko Freeman, this wine is a reflection of her journey, her dedication to Pinot Noir, and the friendships that have shaped Freeman Winery along the way. Elegant, expressive, and crafted with intention, it’s a wine that brings people together around the table.

That same spirit lives within Friends of Freeman. More than a membership, it’s a community of wine lovers who share a passion for handcrafted wines, meaningful connections, and giving back. Through Friends of Freeman, 5% of every membership is donated to local charitable organizations, helping support the communities we call home.

Great wine has always been about more than what’s in the glass. It’s about the people who share it.

A huge thank you to the team for inviting us to pour at their Wine Wednesday event! We had a great turnout, and the engaging conversation made the evening fly by. The wines were showing beautifully, and it was a true pleasure introducing Freeman Wines to so many first-time drinkers of our wines! A big thanks to all that came to the event!

Happy Memorial Day.

Today we honor the brave soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. We are all connected to someone who served, is currently enlisted or is about to start their journey. Let’s honor them today, and each day for their service.

Akiko and her team works tirelessly to craft wines for all to share and enjoy. One part of being a small family winery is being able to hit the road and meet new people while sharing those wines across the country and the world! Thank you to as we crossed the 2 million miles mark! We have enjoyed all our travels to meet you in your home towns and we can’t wait till our next trip.

Cheers to you and your support of our dream!

Cheers to the weekend! How are you kicking off this warm weekend?

From the cool coastal slopes of Yu-ki Estate comes our 2021 Brut Rosé. Named after Akiko’s nephew and perched just 5 miles from the Pacific above Occidental, this sparkling Pinot Noir is crafted méthode Champenoise for elegance and complexity.

Delicate bubbles, pale salmon hues, and notes of brioche, roasted hazelnuts, wet stone, and fresh berries lead to a vibrant, refreshing finish. Perfect for the weekend, or any special occasions!

It takes discipline to farm on the far edge of the West Sonoma Coast. Fog, wind, steep hillsides, patience. It’s a place that asks everything of you. For Akiko, that challenge has always been part of the beauty. As one of the few female Japanese Winemakers in the world, it’s that passion for the detail and the land that carries through each and every day.

Her approach to winemaking begins long before harvest. It starts in the vineyard, walking the rows at Gloria and Yu-Ki Estate, paying close attention to the health of the soil, the vines, and the surrounding ecosystem. Stewardship of the land has always been central to her — farming with intention, protecting these coastal sites, and ensuring they continue to thrive for generations to come.

Her wines reflect that philosophy: thoughtful, precise, and deeply connected to place. Every vintage is not simply made, but carefully guided — an expression of the land, the season, and the people who care for it every day.
