Don’t like it as much as their single vineyard as it is heavier bodied and more Oaked. But it is still very nice.

Aromatic cherry pie with a brioche crust on the nose. Black cherry with subtle raspberry and blueberry in the background. Fresh palate and a strong finish with soft tiny tannins. A super complex pinot.. got better with every sip. Sure this could have benefited even more from a quick decant but lovely never the less.

Agree with Paul below - I actually preferred the Radian pinot from Dragonette. But that’s hardly a slight - just more of a preference of style. This is a big, rich pinot - buttery oak honeying up the cranberries and plum skins. There’s a citrus-like tang that somehow morphs into charcoal smoke and dark chocolate...
