A value priced Pinot from Étude? Say what! Lovely aroma, great mouthfeel. The fruit is a little warmer than I would prefer, but over all it's very balanced. A touch of alcohol. But for under 20.00, amazing.

I've had a few Etude Pinot Noir's and been impressed with each. This bottle was light, but not too sweet. The fruit was enjoyable as was the finish. Assuming this is under $20 at a wine store, it's definitely worth trying again. Cheers!

Very extracted. Surprising amount of tannin.

Expected more for the price (and from Étude). Heat, medicinal, slightly green, out of balance. Tried straight out of bottle and then again after an hr in glass. Same.
