A very good warm weather white. Drank over 2 days and it held up well. Some tart white fruits with a slight spice on the finish.

A nice break from most of the wines I drink. This wine shows its stuff mid palate and I can see why its such a great blending grape.

A very average cab. Some fruit but seemed flat and thin on the finish. Have had better bottles from other vintages.

Decanted for 1.5 hours. Wow after having the 74-41 (which I liked) this was a totaly different wine. More fruit on the nose and in the mouth. It goes to the edge of the more modern fuit forward cabs with out going over. Great wine made by even better people.

Decanted 2 hours. A excellant cab with hints of blackberry, cassis and a touch of vanilla. Medium bodied with a chewy finish. Some tannin is there but not at all overpowering. A wonderful wine made by some very nice people.

Pop and pour then drank over the next 2 hours. Faint blackberries, forest floor with some cedar. Medium bodied mouth feel with some tannins. These seemed to be styled more of an old world style cab.

PnP- Took this to a party and had a glass. Very consistent notes. Still just a baby but seems like it is starting to open up a little more.

1 hour decant. One of the wines I took on a New Years weekend trip to Primland resort.( I will say that if you are in southwest Virgina check the place out it is awesome) Lovely nose of dark berries a touch of oak but very well integrated. Smooth finish with some sweet tannins. One of my favorites.

2008 Sojourn Cabernet Sauvignon Home Ranch Vineyard

Sonoma Valley more

1 hour decant for half the bottle then the other half the next day.
Day 1 - The flavors of blackberries, cassis, vanilla and the signiture blueberry seem to find your nose no matter how far you are away from the glass. Nice finish.
Day 2 - Still getting the blackberries and vanilla along with some tobacco notes. The wine has gained some weight and the finish has added a little lenght.

1 hour decant. Blackberries, vanilla and that touch of blueberry that this wine always seems to have. WIne was very open but still could stand a year or two to really show off. It was smooth with more dark fruits on the finish. Hard to find a better Sonoma Cab for this price.

1.5 hour decant. This to me is a good example of a Rutherford AVA wine. On the nose some blackberries but more cedar, leather, tobacco, and "rutherford dust". A nice break from some of my favorite "fruit bombs". The same tone followed through on the palate with a some tannin. I would lay these back a few years as I think they will improve a lot. 90++

Popped and poured off a glass.
Dark fruits, some forest floor and a wonderful hint of chocolate. Great long finish that just keeps going.
Day 2 - More dark fruit and it seems this wine has put a little weight on since yesterday. Also some hits of tobacco. Great balance and the wine is just so smooth and continues that super long finish. This wine seems like it will get a lot better so 94++Great job Jeff!

Consistant notes. Had this with a bottle of 08 The Treat. The Rudius had a ton more going on with this bottle w/o being as big and over the top(which I love the treat for).
Both wines were double decanted for about 6 hours. Outside of my trip to Napa this past winter this is my wine of the year so far.

Decanted 3 hours and consumed over 2 days. This seems to have shut down as I could never really coax anything out of it. I only got a touch of the flavors out of this bottle that I had got out of my previous 2. You can tell something is still there just got to wait for it to open back up and show it's stuff again.
Don't think it is fair to rate this bottle due to belief it is closed down.

Slow ox for about 3 hours. Did not take anynotes on this wine as I enoyed it in the hotel after finishing my first 1/2 marathon. I think that it is coming out a little bit as it was closed down the last time I had it.

Short decant. Needed a good bottle to take to a friends house and just reached a grabbed this one as I loved the nice blueberry notes my first bottle had. The fruit notes had simmered down a little with this bottle as well as a little bit of the tannins, but a large amount of them remainded. Love onece again how smooth this wine is. The friends were impressed.

2 hour decant. Loved this wine. Very different flavors than a lot of cabs I had over the weekend. I did get more red fruit notes as others have noted than the blue and black fruits. Very smooth mouthfeel even with the tannins. This wine will stay on my buy list thats for sure. 93+
