Note di degustazione
The most expensive wine, and their top cuvée, is the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Proprietary Cuvée, a blend of hillside and valley floor vineyards, with the hillside component coming from the Oakville Ranch and the valley floor from the famous Georges III Vineyard in Rutherford. A gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 75% New French oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered, this wine exhibits the classicism of the top Cabernets from Napa Valley's top vineyards. Thick, juicy crème de cassis fruit, blackberries, spice box and floral notes are all present in this full-bodied, opulently textured, pure and impressively endowed wine. It should drink nicely for at least another 15+ years, although it is accessible already.

Sojourn's 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Proprietary Cuvée is made from a blend of sites in the valley. Dark, ripe and voluptuous, the 2013 is laced with super-ripe dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate and sweet spices, all of which give the wine its unctuous feel. More overt than the Georges III, the Proprietary Cuvée is also distinctly sweet and unctuous in style. I find the Georges III a bit better balanced.
