ETUDE CARNEROS PINOT NOIR 2021 Rated 96 by James Suckling This dark ruby-red Pinot Noir is bright and juicy. Fragrant aromas of red cherry, cranberry, and cassis sit alongside lifted dusty rose and tobacco leaf, while crushed stone and minerality support the vibrant fruit. On the palate, fresh, mouthwatering acidity accompanies a core of fresh red berries and dried cherry, while perfumed cedar, white pepper spice, caramel, and toasty vanilla oak come through as a tribute to the oak aging. Secondary notes of delicate cherry blossom, wild violet, dried thyme, and bay laurel are also present. The medium body supports soft tannins with a firm grip. The wine finishes long, smooth, and round with nuanced hints of graphite, clove spice, and earthy minerality derived from the volcanic soils adding complexity and depth, a signature characteristic found in Grace

LYRIC MONTEREY COUNTY PINOT NOIR 2023 A gentle, light burgundy hue welcomes you to savor the red cherry, fresh strawberry, and warm almond aromatics followed by a layer of lightly toasted oak supporting the red fruit. The palate offers notes of pomegranate and raspberry around a dense core of fresh red berry and herbs. This classic, medium-bodied Pinot Noir has a silky mouthfeel, bright acidity, and soft, subtle tannins that linger just long enough to take another sip. It’s elegant, refined, and bright, with perfectly

balanced acidity, fruit, and oak. $19.99 $26.99
