title: Davies 2010 Nobles Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
description: Sparkling wine specialist Schramsberg ventures out to the Fort Ross area to tinker with Pinot Noir under its Davies brand. This shows intensity and concentration, with powerful raspberry and cherry essences that are compounded by sweet-tasting, smoky oak. Impressive now, but it should gain traction in the bottle over the next four years.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Nobles Vineyard
