Magic. Almost indescribable - my tasting notes on this took three tries, and are probably nugatory in the face of such a sui generis masterpiece. Gorgeous copper hue. Endlessly complex nose and palate that, for me, starts on peach, develops into a ripe quince note, and then becomes golden apple or even overripe pear. The body is supple and the acid is there as a solid structure. Don’t sleep on @Sasa Radikon.

This copper colored Pinot Grigio is just awesome--complete disregard for contemporary "typicity," it is it's own thing, and absolutely delicious. Full bodied, rich and creamy, but refreshing and mineral at the same time.

Sasa Radikon visited Amsterdam for a tasting of his wines. Since 2009 he makes these Pinot Grigio's, it's a personal project. Maceration for ten days in 3000 liter oak vessels & aged in even bigger (old) barrels of 3500 liter for 18 months. A wine of fantastic texture, complex taste, and never-ending finish. And the colour is fantastic too! It shows the true tint of Pinot Grigio: somewhere in between white and red. Great wine. Great tasting! Thank you @Sasa Radikon!

Copper color, nutty, creamy, rich, and delicious. Long finish with gripping tannins.

Gateway Radikon. Once you've opened your palate to the enchanting Pinot Grigio, the truly magical Jakot, Oslavje and Ribolla await. This tho - fan-fuckin-tastic with a roast chicken.

As refreshing as skin contact pinot grigio can be, drunk on the streets of NYC in between tastings...

Unclear deep orange or rose color
First scents: Raisins, barrel, vanilla, woody nuance
Second note: yeast, Autumn leafs, mushrooms, Tartuffe, peach, plum, cabbage, onion.
Muscat, ripen red fruits, rum, iron, fire works, kidney beans, coriander.
Light and smooth sweet and vivid acid, mushrooms and vanilla, hint of bitterness. Juicy ripen fruity after.
