Wine Review: This slightly hazy and garnet colored Pinot Noir from Sojourn opens with a black raspberry and cedar bouquet with hints of light loam, red cherry, and cinnamon. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is bright, fresh, smooth, and a little lush. The flavor profile is a red plum and stone dust blend with notes of cedar and red cherry. We also detected hints of craisin, sage, and white pepper. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and faint tannins drift away nicely. I would decant this wine briefly in the near term. The aeration really brings this wine together. We would then pair this Pinot with pork roast. Enjoy - KWGTP
