2011 Sojourn Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

85 Points

Wednesday, January 30, 2013 - Atrocious by Sojourn standards. Nonexistent nose. Nothing on the mid-palate. Flabby cola. Have had this twice now and, unfortunately, my notes both times are consistent. The worst Sojourn vintage top to bottom.

I had these at the same spring release tasting that I have attended for the past five or so years. There was a very significant difference in quality compared to prior years.
