DAVIES VINEYARDS “Ferrington Vineyard” Pinot Noir 2014
(Anderson Valley, California) $65
Much has been made of the sexiness of pinot noir—the way it can feel (satiny), the way it can smell (bed sheets in the morning); the taste (leaving this one to your imagination). And I think that a certain unconscious attraction may be true. After all, most of us aren’t driven mad by pinot because it tastes like cherries. The Davies Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley’s Ferrington Vineyard is one such wine. In addition to all the sexy stuff, it smells simultaneously old (cedar chests) and new (fresh forest). Drink it slowly. As with so many things, it’s better that way. (14.3% abv)
