(Non-France) Pinot Noirs of North London (Must & Lees, Warren Street): Quite a serious nose, with just a bit of funk, and some strawberry fruit behind that. Clean, crisp finish. Others seemed to like this more, but the combination of funk and fruit just didn't quite work for me.

TWS North London - Pinot Noir ex-France (Must & Lees, Warren Street): Funny how much influence a label can have: I find the BBR brand pretty unappealing and I was really quite reticent to give this a chance. But you just can't argue with the value proposition here - quite assertive and powerful but detailed red fruit, strawberry and crab apple. Nicely resolved. Good saturation on the palate, a cheeky sweetness on a slightly chewy finish. Really gluggable and very good value.

Non-french Pinot Noir (Must & Lees, Warren Street): Light red. Fresh nose, red fruit welling up, great. As with all the other bottles from this case, this was sleek, high-toned and frankly delicious. Keep it simple, no need to think about it, mid-week PN par excellence, delivers in all the right places at a great price (£23). The challenge is to find it for £20 apparently but I am OK with the extra £3! An easy rebuy.

Lip-smackingly delicious, red fruit dialled up to the max, sweet and succulent, easy drinking par excellence.
