HISTORY - Freedom Hill is situated on the border of Paarl WO & Franschhoek WO areas.

1. FREEDOM HILL WINES HISTORY - Freedom Hill is situated on the border of Paarl WO & Franschhoek WO areas. - Latter part being the historic town where the French Huguenots settled in the late 1600’s, early 1700’s after fleeing France with the “Edict of Nantes”. - They brought with them vineyard- and wine making skills and played a major role in establishing the South African wine industry. - Majority of the varieties planted on our farm are French varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz; as well as our own locally cultivated variety called Pinotage. - Most wine farms in the Franschhoek area still have their original French names. - Freedom Hill Wines’ unique names stem from the fact that our farm overlooks the now famous Victor Verster Prison (now called Drakenstein Prison), where our great folk hero and ex president, Nelson Mandela spent his last 3 years (1998 – 1990) before finally taking those first steps to freedom. - As he was walked out of the prison-grounds he looked straight onto the Wemmershoek mountain where our vineyards are planted today. - Owner, Francois Klomp, an engineer by profession, bought the beautiful 82ha farm in 1997, of which 20ha under vineyards. - They first named it Klompzicht and, combining their talents with those of a small, inspired team, set out to develop it into what has become a model boutique cellar. - Freedom Hill Wine range released in 2004.

6. FREEDOM HILL WINES CHARACTERISTICS OF WINE Why we have a unique terroir in Paarl Wine of Origin area: - As mentioned, it borders the Franschhoek WO, separated only by the cutting in the mountains that was created to build a road leading to Paarl and Wellington. - The strong prevailing southeaster wind blows from Franschhoek towards Paarl and the cutting acts like a venturi as the wind blows through and onto our vineyards planted on the other side against the mountain; creating a very cool micro-climate. - Thus temperatures on Freedom Hill are much cooler than average for Paarl WO and more resembles mountain vineyards in Stellenbosch, but, with different soils! - Cooler climate results in better retention of fruit flavours and slower ripening produces riper and softer tannins; both ideal to make classic elegant wines. - Fairly high percentage sand in soil. - Cool breezes increase evaporation of moisture out of the soils & therefore carefully calculated and precise irrigation is necessary for the vines to deliver optimal quality rather than maximum yields. - Optimal quality gives low yields, intensity of fruit and ripe tannins. - Longer maturation of wines, through barrel and bottle, ensures abundant flavours that pairs well with food.
