Dark, deep and dense with a rich and extracted nose of fully ripe cherries that accurately predicts the comparatively big flavors that follow, the Hudson Vineyards bottling is the weightiest and most fully stuffed of the Davies lot, and it more than makes up in staying power and sheer fruity strength for what it may lack in finesse. That said, it is not a clumsy or unbalanced wine, and its sights remain fixed on concentrated cherries throughout. It will take to age nicely and will grow for a half-decade or more, and, whether enjoyed now or later, it is Pinot that wants drinking with heartier foods. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (October 2017)

Among the richer wines of the new Davies bunch and a Pinot that exhibits considerable fruity depth, this one from the Goorgian Vineyards is mouthfilling wine of fine concentration, yet it never once threatens to be too much of a good thing. It is optimally ripened with deft highlights of oak and sweet soils to its ongoing themes of black cherries, and it finishes with a light touch of tannin that signals its best days lie a few years down the line. If it is impressive now, it will be more so with age, and it is sure to reward three or four years of patience. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (October 2017)
