Always one of our most powerful Pinot Noirs, Radian Vineyard fruit comes into the winery in perfect, tiny clusters of berries with thick skins and incredible concentration. Notes of blackberries, charcoal, teriyaki sauce and chaparral add interest and intrigue to this incredibly-ageworthy Pinot Noir. -Lily Hays, Direct to Consumer Business Manager

"This is one of the higher alcohol readings for this winery, but the wine sticks to a bright, herby style, starting with aromas of bay leaf, tea and green peppercorn on the nose, alongside the pom-cranberry scents. Thyme joins the party on the brisk, cranberry- driven palate." -Matt Kettmann

"From an extreme vineyard on the western end of Santa Rosa Road, this wine is pristine and assertively savory, made more so by the caper-like, whole-cluster spice. Its lean berry and olive leaf flavors complete an austere package, needing time in the cellar to sort out." -P.J.C.
