January 13, 2024 - This is still great. Not over the hill at all. Medium-full bodied. Medium-low acidity. Just enough to hold things together. Dark black cherry and chocolate coat the palate. Hint of mushroom on the nose and a long finish. It's bigger than you'd expect at 14 years old. Still holding. Not bricking. Can't believe the life this still has. Last one in 2025-2027. Or do I wait longer to see.....

September 9, 2023 - Peak drinking. Nose trending towards more oak dominant as fruit fades, but not in mature oxidizing state yet. Taste is a raspberry cola powerhouse, but baking spice and pie crust has faded. Great with food, but just starting to roll over the other side of the hill. Now we know on Sojourn: 10-15 years past vintage is ideal.

July 12, 2021 - Wow! Apparently I was a tough critic on 11/05/20. I really enjoyed this tonight but I suspect it was because of the food pairing (Sockeye salmon and roasted asparagus).
No mistaking this for anything but Sonoma pinot. There's loads of ripe fruit, primarily raspberry with cherry being distinctly secondary, cola and spices, and oak.
Last few sips were nice but I found this much more enjoyable with food.
