Here is one of the many I've found:
2007 Agustinos Pinot Noir Reserva (Bio-Bio Valley Chile)
Medium to dark brick red. Very aromatic, with "Old World" herbal (eucalyptus)/spice/soil characteristic (think Sauvigny Les Beaune). Perfumed aromas of this fruit are nuanced with sweat and some tar; slight alcohol burn.
On the palate, a spicy, ripe, racy (pepper/plum) fruit is joined by a slight note of the aforementioned alcohol (and tannins). Good acidity and balance. Moderate finish. At $11 this opens the Pinot Noir door without breaking the bank.
