Dragonette Cellars 'Radian Vineyard' Pinot Noir, Sta Rita Hills, USA 2022 Kabinett Lots of cabernet franc thisThe 2022 Radian Pinot Noir is complex, with a dark red fruit profile (some black cherries and red plums, with raspberry liqueur, pomegranate), along with spices, and herbs (a distinct chapparal note) and the usual saline character from the ocean. The wine is graceful due to citrus and mineral laced acidity.
