Description

Named in honor of patriarch Jack Davies, J. Davies is the product of an intimate knowledge of a place, and a passion to create a delicious red wine. McEachran vineyard was first planted in 1878 by Colin McEachran. It was replanted to Bordeaux varietals by the Davies family beginning in 1994 and is the southernmost vineyard in the Diamond Mountain AVA. This wine comes from the Tierra Luna block and was aged 24 months in Taransaud French oak barrels. Projected aging is 12 months in bottle. "Rich, dense and dark, this is a snapshot of the phenomenal 2006 growing season. Pure fruit in the nose, notes of blueberry, blackberry, and cassis assert themselves. Mocha, carob and more dark fruit arrive in the mouth, where bold tannins frame a wine of great elegance and complexity." ~ Winemakers Hugh Davies & Craig Roemer
