Meet Akiko Freeman, Winemaker

A native of Tokyo, Akiko discovered her passion for wine through her grandfather, whose appreciation for exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay inspired a lifelong fascination with great wine. After earning a master’s degree in Italian Renaissance Art History from Stanford University, she traveled extensively through many of the world’s premier wine regions before returning to California to pursue a shared dream with her husband, Ken. Together they founded Freeman Vineyard & Winery in 2001, dedicated to crafting elegant, cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley and West Sonoma Coast. Today, Akiko oversees every aspect of winemaking, from vineyard stewardship and grower partnerships to blending and final production. Her meticulous attention to detail, commitment to organic farming, and remarkably refined palate have helped establish Freeman as one of California’s most respected producers of site-driven, Burgundian-inspired wines.

Meet Ken Freeman, Proprietor

Ken developed his passion for wine growing up in a wine-loving family in Scarsdale, New York, and later shared a dream with his wife, Akiko, of producing exceptional Burgundian-inspired Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. After earning an MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, Ken built a successful international business career, including helping establish Discovery Channel in Asia and later working in finance and wealth management. In 2001, he and Akiko realized their vision by founding Freeman Vineyard & Winery, focused on crafting elegant, cool-climate wines from the Russian River Valley and West Sonoma Coast. Today, Ken remains deeply involved in the winery’s operations, overseeing estate vineyards, supporting cellar work, and championing sustainable land stewardship. He is also a founding member of the West Sonoma Coast Vintners and serves on the board of the Sonoma Land Trust, helping preserve Northern California’s agricultural and natural landscapes.
