  A pale ruby colour, this wine smells of fresh strawberries and raspberries, alongside savoury flavours including raw mushrooms and savoury cereal. On the palate, this savoury fruit flavour carries threw with med+ acidity, low tannin, a medium body, with a long- finish. It's very good: a nicely drinking wine on a summer's day.

  Nose of trees after a rain, damp earth. Light tannins on the palate, very short finish. Oregon-style pinot.

  Clear, deep colour, red-brown. Normal viscosity.
  
  Clean, ethereal nose. Slight black plums/cherry jam.
  
  Dry, good refreshing acidity. Some oak in the mouth, light-medium body. Acceptable length and good balance. An elegant wine.

  I served this in my wine course. More vegetal and less of the bright acidity than I remember from previous vintages. Some slight medicinal quality to the nose that is distracting. Disappointing, as I remember from previous vintages that this was a fairly reliable if straightforward wine.
