We welcome Ken Freeman to The Carlton on Friday, November 6 to introduce his prestigious small production Russian River Valley Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs to a Pittsburgh audience! Ken has enjoyed a super successful career in business, but was able to realize a dream when he and his wife purchased a small Russian River Valley winery in 2001. Today, his exclusive and highly rated wines are found at the finest restaurants and he has been heralded as one of the top Pinot Noir producers in the world!
