2019 Etude 'Grace Benoist Ranch' Pinot Noir Carneros
$49.95
Grace Benoist Ranch is tucked away in the far Northwest corner of the Carneros appellation, with layers of varied, volcanic soils and coursing with fault-line energy. This vibrant red opens with lifted red berry aromas along with the signature cinnamon and graham cracker notes. Lush and silky, this Pinot Noir is a pure delight.

Dried strawberries with spices, such as cloves and peppercorns, as well as some dried flowers. Medium to full body with a pretty core of ripe pinot, fine and linear tannins and a long, fresh finish. Needs time to open, but vibrant and attractive now. Drink after 2023.
