Description

ETUDE has been dedicated to sustainably growing and handcrafting Pinot Noir for over 35 years. Our longstanding vineyards in the coastal paradise of Santa Barbara County, with its brisk ocean air and cool climate, inspired us to craft this dry Rose9. Elegant and crisp, our Rose9 of Pinot Noir is as enticing as it is charming.

Producer Description

Etude was founded on the philosophy that winemaking begins in the vineyard long before the harvest and that superior grape growing diminishes the need for intervention by the winemaker, resulting in wine that is grown, not made. This remains our approach today as we continue to build the Etude legacy.Etude was established 1982, when founding winemaker Tony Soter set his sights on the cool-climate Carneros region in the pursuit of producing world class Pinot Noir.As a winemaker, Tony always had a fascination with Pinot Noir. He was quoted as saying “Pinot Noir is the most appropriate vehicle with which to study wine growing, precisely because of its demanding nature but also because of its delicacy and transparency. Make no mistake it is a humbling pursuit, but when it’s right, Pinot Noir is a glorious and moving thing. It is in the pursuit of that experience that we all work.”
