Dan Tudor’s second project/label is Radog. It was created in 2005. Dan wanted to declassify one half of the 2004 Pinot Noir vintage from Tudor so he needed a second label. With a little Bull Terrier on a surfboard on the label, it’s fun, and some great wine! So what’s with the label anyway? Well, Dan and the graphic designer he uses were having a beer (yes, winemakers drink beer too) and Mexican food and were trying to come up with a name for the second label. Dan likes to surf and he wanted to have a Bull Terrier some day (now he does; her name is Evie) so they came up with Radog. Gewürztraminer, Rosé of Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and yes, another delicious Pinot Noir are produced under the Radog label
