Etude "Lyric" Pinot Noir
2016, Santa Barbara, Central Coast, California
Vibrant ruby in color, this Pinot Noir jumps out of the glass with red fruit confiture aromas alongside fresh Bing cherry, raspberry, and hints of kola-nut. From the beautiful oak integration, sweet spiced notes of cinnamon, clove and allspice. On the palate, the red fruits continue with fresh raspberry and strawberry backed up by soft tannins and cedar spice notes. Silky and elegant, this wine is balanced with bright acidity and finesse, making this a wonderful accompaniment for an assortment of dishes.
$13.99 / bottle - regular price $17.99
“Light on the nose with hints of cranberry, crushed gravel, wet slate and rose petals, this affordable bottling gives a good sense of minerality at a fair price. There’s an herbal background to the bright palate, which offers tart pomegranate and hibiscus flavors.”
