Our take
What we make of this bottle
Blanc de Noirs is the name this wine goes by, though the record does not confirm which grape or grapes stand behind it. Take it instead for what it plainly is: a California sparkling wine in a 750 ml bottle, one where our September 2026 checks, at the two stores that carried it, put the price between $49.99 and $54.99.
If you are weighing it against other sparkling wines on the shelf, price is the firmer thing to go on. As for the maker, the winery points to 1965, when, it says, Jack and Jamie Davies restored the Napa Valley estate.

Research status
What we are still checking
Our overview above draws on the dated store feed, shopper ratings, our region and grape research, and any sourced producer facts. We are still working to confirm the current release, the full producer record, and the bottle itself, and we update this page as we learn more.
Getting to know California.
California on the label is useful provenance but weak detail about place. For these wines, sourcing disclosure, blend construction and house-style consistency carry more decision value than a generic climate paragraph.
What the name means
A state-level appellation, broader than an individual American Viticultural Area. It permits a multi-region blend and does not by itself identify one climate or soil.
How grapes grow here
The state spans cool maritime zones and hot inland valleys. A California designation alone does not reveal which conditions shaped the fruit.
What lies under the vines
At state scale, sourcing and house-style construction matter more than any single soil story.
How large the region is
- Reusable question
- Which counties or AVAs supplied the blend, and did that mix change by release?
Places within the region
- Resolution limit
- County, AVA and vineyard claims begin only when the release names them.
