Sojourn, Campbell Ranch Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

Medium red. Ripe cherry, hints of raspberry on finish. Nice bramble, vanilla, and spice gives warmth on finish. Tannins nicely integrated.

Darker red. Pleasant; tart cherries; slight lemon peel; soft finish.

2013 vintage

Deep red, purple tinge, slightly clouded. Brooding, black cherry, earthy spice of cedar, some cranberry and leather on finish, a whiff of tannin to suggest continued aging could mellow the wine. Day 2 (resealed in half-bottle in cellar) and the wine had more red fruit, and the slightly harsher elements had softened. More enjoyable, although a tad less complex.

2013 vintage

Nicely integrated and flavorful. Tastes of cranberries, raspberries, and other red fruits. Very clean and pure.f

Nice, but turning the corner on slightly stewy notes, which I don’t prefer. My last bottle, but if I had more I’d drink them up now.

In the glass, this is a maroon and light violet. The nose is soft but very cheerful, hint of strawberry. The mouthfeel is also still subtle but still very present, the strawberry is still there, little notes of forest floor, and a hint of white pepper on a moderate finish. Paired perfectly with a pan seared salmon and wild rice.

2013 vintage

Red fruit, hints of pepper, herbal notes, cedar and some anise on the finish. A-

Quite nice. A little flat on opening but drinking nicely after a couple of hours of air.

This was very pretty tonight with lots of soft, velvety red fruit, some subtle Asian spice notes, earthy undertones and abit of black pepper on the long finish. Drinking well almost immediately after opening.

2013 vintage

Crimson color. Bright maraschino cherry, cranberry, sandal wood, caramel and a bit too much alcohol on the nose; tart black cherry on the palate and finish. Thin and watery across the palate - headed toward cooked or always this way? Campbell Ranch seems to be a one-off in the Sojourn Rota; maybe this vintage is the reason?

2013 vintage

Aerated and decanted for 45 minutes. Lots of red fruit, especially raspberry and cherry with moderate tannin and spice notes. Wish I had another bottle.

2013 vintage

Very tasty. Light to medium ruby red in the glass. Odd and mild chemical nose (really hard to identify). Bright pomegranate, strawberry, and rhubarb flavors. Some persistence in the mouth. Lots going on in the glass.

2013 vintage

Opened and decanted for an hour. This wine is drinking wonderfully now. Smooth and even all the way through, I got notes of plenty of mixed berries on the nose. The mouthfeel was light and airy and full of raspberry and toasted vanilla. I thought this can work on its own or with a meal and would love to acquire another bottle.

2013 vintage

Fits firmly in the Sojourn style: cranberry, sandalwood and sassafras on the nose; tart cherry, black tea and sour cranberry on the palate and finish. Very good value, especially with the Costco discount.

2013 vintage

Really good. Lots of bright red cherry and cranberry. Medium bodied with lots of fruit flavor the whole way through. Medium acidity. Drinking really nicely right now.

2013 vintage

extremely fragrant upon opening, decanted for a couple hours, very standout red and blue fruits and flowers on the nose, creamy mouthfeel, fine tannins, raspberry, red licorice, and cherry pits fill in on the palate, fully loaded with a wide spectrum of fresh red fruit, delicious

West of West NYC - short notes from the tasting (City Winery - New York City) : Much leaner than the Ridgetop tasted before this. Cherry, plums, spice and earth. Nice but not as complex, will drink well for 5-7 years

2013 vintage

Bright ruby in color. The Campbell Ranch Vineyard packs that outstanding Sojourn bouquet of earth, raspberry and cinnamon. The mouthfeel is silky smooth and the palate delivers raspberry, strawberry, baking spice, green apple and some tropical pineapple. The acid is on the subtle end for a Sojourn Pinot Noir and the finish is nice and long with cinnamon and a hint of cranberry. This is phenomenal.

2013 vintage

Tasted at Sojourn tasting room. Clear, medium+ red color. Youthful moderate nose. Dry, medium/full body with fresh/smooth acidity and low tannins. Good balance, moderate+ flavor medium+ finish. Overall 4/5 Price $59 Abv

Ready drink right away. Very nice wine

2013 vintage

It's no secret that I've been a fan of Sojourn for a number of years. My last experience with the '13 Wohler was fine, but not exceptional. Well, I can't say the same for the Campbell. This was ready to drink after popping the cork. The nose was incredible. The first taste showed cherries, and it was ready to go. This is a somewhat darker pinot noir. It's smooth and subtle, but not dainty. As we approached the 90 minute …

I recently consumed all three 2015 SC SVDs. My first thought was this wine tasted very Sonoma Coast. Had the Thanksgiving baking spice profile. Also had that musty earth and forest floor aspects to it, some barnyard. Of the three SC Pinots, this one had more of the herbal notes, forest, pine, some “greenness” to it. But also had some sweet cherry. As it sat, more dried cherry came through. This wine, of the three SCs, seems already the most …

2013 vintage

Smooth raspberry, strawberry, and red fruit with underlying forest floor. More elegant than powerful and lighter styled than some of the other Sojourn offerings in the fall release.
