Tightly clutched at the end

well-balanced and stony finish

I gave it a couple of extra days open to be sure just how lovely it was

low-intensity fruit and integrated acidity

The Hilt, Radian Vineyard Chardonnay other_regions_italy 2008 Run Rig and LesRadians ridgelines are the steepest, reaching nearly 700 feet at its highest points. Outcrops of diatomaceous earth and rocky soils dominate Radian. The rocky soils at the top of Radian offer good drainage and heat retention, an aspect critical to the production of ripe fruit at high elevation with cold, whipping winds. Bit of sulphur on the nose. Generous and fleshy, savoury characters. Enough acidity. A very different style with a gravelly texture
