This Etude Pinot Noir and Bon Appétit gift basket pairs a genuinely elegant Carneros Pinot Noir with a generous, well-rounded gourmet spread, wrapped in a golden bow atop a woven basket. Etude sources this wine from Grace Benoist Ranch, its estate vineyard in the far northwest corner of Carneros, where volcanic soils and cool coastal air produce fruit with real depth and finesse. Pour it and the first thing you notice is the vibrant ruby garnet color, followed by lifted red berry and black cherry aromas layered with cedar and pink peppercorn, finishing with warm notes of nutmeg and clove. Around it, the basket fills out with smoked gouda spread, Italian crisps, almond biscotti, chocolate truffles, madeleines, olives, and more, giving the recipient plenty to snack on alongside every glass.
