Deep garnet. This wine has aged well and is drinking beautifully now. Purchased direct from the winery with perfect provenance. Tannins are there but milder with age. Strawberry jam opens up to tannins then hits a bit of acidity and slow finish.

This may be one of the first, and the oldest Sojourns I have. I've always liked the Home Ranch, and even as an early release, and now an old bottle, this was a great wine. Wish I still had a few of these around.

I've gone back and forth on this wine over the last two years. Perhaps it's bottle variation or perhaps the wine is going through phases. Tonight, this bottle is very good. More blueberries and black fruit then the previous bottle with a little earth and chocolate. Nose is still muted.

Much better than the last bottle. The fruit is back. Good depth of blue and black fruit.

Same note. Poured for 6 people. Similar notes with a majority not attracted to the nose.
