An appealing Pinot for its fresh, silky mouthfeel and delicious flavors. Rich in raspberry-cherry pie filling and cola, with a funky edge of bacon, it’s finished with smoky oak. A rather sweet wine to drink now.

Go elsewhere if you’re looking for a big, oaky Chardonnay fruit bomb. This one is controlled and elegant, offering tantalizing hints of pineapples, minerals, sweet cream, buttered toast and spices. The acidity is mouthwatering. An elegant, food-friendly wine at a good price.

A very dry, minerally wine whose inspiration is Chablis. The profile is lean and clean but complex, with a steely edge to the pineapples and Asian pears. A lovely Chardonnay that will support, not swamp, food.

This is a tough, gritty young Pinot Noir now in its infancy. It’s made of acids and feral, forest berries, pine needles and spicy anise, a menagerie of mouth impressions without a clear focus. Yet it could meld together with some years in the cellar. Try after 2010.

Firm and minerally, with green apple butter, pineapple tart and highly charred oak flavors that finish with a caramelized, slightly burnt aftertaste. Drink now.

Very rich in wild cherry, raspberry, red currant, tangerine zest, cola and smoky oak flavors, this Pinot also has a closed, quality due to vibrant acidity and some very finely ground tannins. Decant if you drink now. Could come into its own after 2010, but it’s an unproved wine from the Boisset America team.

An interesting new wine that aims for balance and elegance rather than powerful fruit extraction. Shows an acid-inspired crispness that brightens wild berry, currant, cola and peppery spice flavors. Despite the silky mouthfeel, it feels undeveloped. This score reflects its current drinkability, but it could surprise in 4–6 years or longer.

Crisp and spicy, this blush has slightly sweet flavors of raspberries, red currants, lavender and vanilla.
