Still has strong tannin backbone so can have another several years left.
No need to wait.
Drinking perfectly now.

March 19, 2022 - Definitely past its considerable prime, but still some pleasure to be found. Any bright fruit is gone in 2022, but there's still some lively tartness underneath the older, dryer, savory aged characteristics.
February 24, 2022 - Great Pinot. Splash decanted. Great fruit with strong berry flavors. Medium body. Medium finish. Wine began losing some flavor after two hours in the decanter. Time to drink up.
September 17, 2021 - Split decision. Wife said no fruit, muted flavor and no finish. I said it OK. I smell distinctive Pinot grape, good palate, nice finish. She is the better taster. Drink.
June 2, 2021 - Still going pretty strong. No rush on last two bottles in our cellar.
November 6, 2020 - Awesome
May 8, 2020 - Not going to score this wine. It was almost as if it had completely turned. I realize it's a 2011, but I've had other nine plus year old Sojourn pinots that were absolutely holding their own. We have three more bottles left in our cellar, so I will try another one soon to see how it is.
February 15, 2020 - Candied cherries, earthy pine notes, hints of mushroom on the palate. Fairly long finish. Still drinking nicely. Medium fine tannins on the mid and back palate..
May 5, 2019 - Cherry pie and baking spices. Shared with guests who seemed to like it.
