Both focused and vibrant, with a bit of the usual Radian wildcard edge, this is a lovely expression of Pinot. Give it some air as it's still young-ish. Or wait, if you can.

PnP, consumed over 3 hours. Appearance: Clear, medium ruby. Nose: Clean, medium+ intensity with developing aromas of cinnamon, baking spice, cranberry, blueberry, strawberry, and leather. Palate: Dry, medium+ acid, medium tannin, medium+ intensity, medium body, 13.5% abv with flavors of 2 parts cranberry, 1 part blueberry and 1 part strawberry with subtle baking spice notes and a medium+ finish.
Balance: Excellent Length: Excellent Intensity: Excellent Complexity: Outstanding - both the nose and palate evolved dramatically over the 3 hour drinking window - ever changing and consistently improving
Overall an excellent-outstanding wine excelling in complexity, still youthful but showing great potential. Can drink now with a couple hours of air, better in 2-3 years and 5+ after that.

one of the best Pinot Noirs i've ever had. had at a friends dinner in Vermont and we paired it with vermont cheese and a taco dinner. more fruit forward but a balanced taste. loved it.

Stunning wine - huge perfume on the nose with incredible balance on the palate. Amazing how much improvement these Pinots have displayed since the initial introduction.

Unmistakably American, and delicious. Vibrant fruit, zippy acidity, good tone and weight - well done. Wish I had another bottle or two.
