  • This was the last bottle of a case that I had bought more than a decade ago and it was outstanding. Cork was in perfect shape. Good example of the complexity and aging ability of Sojourn's single vineyard PNs. Nose was in good shape w/ dried red and purple flowers and dessicated red fruit. Palate was long and concentrated with intensity and gorgeous integration. Beautiful tertiary flavors that lasted and lasted. Acid was Med+ and beautifully cut through the creamy mushroom chicken dish we paired with it. The finish was long and elegant. Wish I had another bottle.

  • I enjoyed this more that a bottle about 2 years ago. Still plenty of dark and red fruit and structure. Plenty of alcohol as well.

  • Showing some age. I think it’s on a downward trajectory, but still drinking well. Drink now.

  • Brick to ruby, rim fading to rose and consistent with age. Medium legs. Clearly red fruit aromas of strawberry & cherry, with medium toast, oak and vanilla as well. On the palate, baking spices are subtle but also present. Medium body, polished texture. Medium finish, medium plus acidity. Fruit and wood tannins. Impression: varietally correct, has aged well. At $40, however, QPR is below average. Drink now or next year.

  • OK, let's recognize the obvious: this wine is almost 10 years out from vintage. Most Cali pinot noir's don't hold up that long. This one drank well (first bottle we have opened from our cellar in two years). At the same time, I agree with the observations of some CT posters that it is showing some age. Not going to wait on the last bottle in our cellar from a case purchase years back. We're been big Sojourn fans since our first trip to Napa and Sonoma in 2007. Thank you to Craig, Erich and the rest of the Sojourn team.
