92 Points

Sunday, February 5, 2012 - Decanted 1 hour. Quite smokey on the nose with notes of cherry, baking soda and a little vanilla oak. Red cherry and cranberry fruit profile with notes of cloves and stone. Nice balance and minerality to this wine. The red fruit was a little sweet initially but became less so as the wine evolved over the course of a few hours. Very smooth and elegant mouthfeel. Quite a long finish with smooth tannins. Defintely the most burgundian of the Sojourn offerings i have tried. Should improve over the short term. Sadly this was my only bottle but i am looking foward to trying the '09 and '10 vintages of this wine although based on this bottle i may hold them for a couple of years.
