Fusion

2021 Pinot Noir

Crafted from the broadest and most diverse blocks, clones, and barrels of the single-vineyard vintage, the 2021 Fusion Pinot Noir harnesses the power, grace, and intensity of LucidWild’s 25-year-old vines. Fusion is deeply layered with elegant notes of red and black fruits, underscored by a subtle brambly herbaceousness and a hint of minerality. Its beautiful structure and long, elegant finish complement the Fusion’s finesse and power.
