Have not had a Sojourn in a while and it was nice to see this not overdone. Liked.

Not my favorite from this winery, but still good. A little on the fruity side with a spicy after taste

Wonderful dark fruit and spice, definitely will not open a bottle for another year, it can age a while IMO!

Sticky dark fruit out of the bottle. Darker berries with some strawberries, hint of cinnamon. Opened up quickly, skinny legs. Nice bottle.
