Nicely balanced between the red/black fruits and the herbal/earthy flavors I prefer in a Pinot Noir. Drank over 3 hours and the last hour was where it shined. Nose of cherry, plum and anise Flavors of raspberry, cherry, plum and allspice. Short off-dry finish

One of the better '18 Sojourns. Consumed over 2 nights. 1st night at the pnp, luscious deep dark red pinot fruit, strawberry/red raspberry and great perfume/florals to go along with it. Probably a 94. 2nd night much the same, just reduced in intensity, a 92 then, so averaging the score to a 93 with my preference being the strength of the 1st night. There seems to be some variation amongst the different '18 Sojourn vineyards. In prior vintages there was strength across the whole board but '18 thus far seems to only have 2-3 that really stand out, at least to me.

Ripe fruit, of cherry and blackberries. Still very fresh yet with the fruit not overpowering . Had on porch with friends while munching on almonds. A nice duo, I will say

Decanted for 30 minutes. Big pinot with long finish. Well balanced with lots of red fruit and good acidity. Wish I had more.
