Note di degustazione
(50% new oak, no stems): Vivid ruby. Aromas of dark berries, cherry pit and cola, with a vanilla quality building in the glass. Fleshy and smooth in texture, offering ripe blackberry and cherry compote flavors and a touch of bitter chocolate. Supple tannins frame a warm, broad finish that continues the cola note. There's a fairly high 3.7 pH in play here, which likely explains the wine's plush, rounded character. (JR)

From the heart of the Russian River AVA, the 2012 Pinot Noir Wohler Vineyard is made primarily from Dijon clones blended with the well-known Wadensville clone used in Oregon, all planted in pure Goldridge soils. Its light color is followed by tart apple skin, pomegranate, plum and clove aromas, tasty cherry pie-like flavors, medium body, and a refreshing, lighter, more finesse-styled personality. It does not have the density and richness of the Ridgetop Vineyard, but it reminds me of a French Cote de Beaune. Drink it over the next 3-5 years. All of Sojourn Cellars’ Chardonnays see about 30% new oak, and tend to have finished alcohols in the 14% to 14.3% range. Sojourn produces a half dozen Pinot Noirs, ranging between 14.2% and 14.6% natural alcohol. Most of them are made from Dijon clones. Tel. (707) 938-7212
