Radian Vineyard is the sister vineyard to Bentrock, both located on the old Salsipuedes ranch. Radian is the western part of the ranch and butts up against the western perimeter of the Santa Rita Hills AVA along Santa Rosa Road. Whereas Bentrock Vineyard is more gentle rolling hills, Radian has really steep vineyard blocks. We have pinot noir there planted at the top of the hill where it’s most exposed to the wind and the cold and the fog. Often we’ll go out there during harvest, up to the top of the hill where our block is, and it feels like a “fog hurricane” because the wind and fog are so intense! You can’t see six feet ahead of you in those conditions.
