1.5 hour decant (just a little cloudy sediment). A thrilling dark purple garnet color. On the nose: blackberry, floral, spice, gravel. Taste: dry, acidic, medium body wine with blackberry, tobacco, cassis, some dusty tannis still there and a cherry cedar medium finish. — 5 years ago

Hazelnuts and cordial cherry. AN interesting nose, that seems to grow bolder as it opens.

Top medium to heavy weighted, with red fruit seeds and pithe, dried persimmons, Hawaiian Christmas pepper, astringent tannins, mingled with a long lasting salinity.
A lovely, bold wine, and a wonderful way to celebrate our 7minutes left sojourn from the escape room earlier today. — 6 years ago

I haven’t had a French love affair in awhile, but here I find myself again. The sound outside of the “gite” window during the afternoon sojourn of me and “x” Frenchman is one of honey bees flitting from the stamen to stigma of strawberry plants, impregnating rosettes to guarantee me even more days of oenophilic passion. (D, the husband I briefly forgot about, indicates he bought this at Cambridge Wine & Spirits). — 7 years ago

08' Sojourn Cellars Proprietary Cuvée. A combination of Spring/ Howell/ GIII. Just takes a short bit for this wine to open up. All fruit and ready to go. Crowdpleaser ! Drink. — 8 years ago

Young, even after an hour decant. Compared vs sojourn 2012 from same vineyard, very tart red fruit. Still very solid mouthfeel though — 10 years ago

Sappy, stems, caramelised sweetness; medium bodied juiciness. Moreish, a little black fruit depth - reels you back in. — 11 years ago

1 hr decant, but tested throughout. Opened up and changed quite a bit over that time. 👃 is cherry, earth, and a little barnyard. Cherry, char, iodine, and plum in the mouth. There’s a lot to love, but there are a couple notes that protrude and break up the balance. Almost sexy. — 6 years ago

Compared to the 13 Sojourn, this pinot just didn't compare. By far, the 09 KB and the 13 Sojourn outdrank it. Poured a little translucent. The nose was red cherry. Some herb. Finishes rather unidimensional. I think this one will be better in a couple of years. What this one needs is two years of bottle age. Just doesn't have the depth....now. — 7 years ago

This needs a lot of air time right now. It was definitely better after an open overnight sojourn in the wine fridge. — 9 years ago

Excellent. More refined and less concentrated fruit that the Sojourn Pinots that Erich makes, but just as delicious. — 11 years ago
