Second Pour with a fresh 93 point raving review!

For over two decades Sojourn has quietly made a name for themselves by making outstanding Pinot and Chard. So when they brought Cabernet into the fold, expectations were high - and they absolutely crushed it! And while this might be their “entry level” offering, it shows all the hallmarks of a classic Napa Cab. Full bodied, fleshy and ripe fruit, and a soft expansive mouthfeel.

This former Wine Spectator Top 100 winery and home of California’s top-rated Pinot Noir of the year does not miss, and THIS is a prime example. At $75 it’s priced like a premium Napa Cab and lives up to the price tag. At nearly 60% OFF it totally breaks our frame of reference.

Fog & Wind is their second label. But it carries all the elegance and character of Sojourn that Robert Parker called “outstanding wines that merit attention.”

Oh, and we are giving it the attention it deserves!

This time around at almost 60% off retail pricing, surely, you’re sitting upright at full attention too?! This is the first Cabernet Sauvignon they’ve done under this label and we sure hope there are more to come.

Sojourn is known for having access to some of the most epic vineyards around. While we’ve been sworn to secrecy, we can tell you that it is a HIGHLY sought-after hillside vineyard site you’d surely recognize. Looking at their Napa Cab fruit sources, it could only be Stagecoach, or Oakville Ranch, or some of both? We’ll never know, what we know is how crazy good it tastes. That’s all we can say. Lips sealed…

Director of Winemaking Erich Bradley got his start at Arrowood and went on to make wine for Hop Kiln as well as Audelssa in Glen Ellen. He credits both Richard Arrowood and David Ramey as his mentors. His right hand and GM Randy Bennett cut his teeth working with Thomas Brown and Mike Smith in the Nicholson Ranch caves where they also make Schrader, Rivers-Marie, Myriad Cellars, Tamber Bey, and (of course) Nicholson Ranch.

Top notch, high caliber winemaking is on display here. Deep, dark and gorgeous, the aromas touch on red fruit, floral, and spice notes. Cedar, fresh tobacco, raspberry preserves and the most heavenly touch of sage fill your mouth with perfectly balanced structure. Nice silky tannins and solid acidity will allow this beauty to age with the best of them.

It was good before but now, at this price point?! Give future you a gift and get yourself a case.

You will not see this wine for this price anywhere else, so you better move quickly!

93 Points – Decanter The 2022 Sojourn Fog & Wind Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is expressive and immediately approachable, making it an excellent choice to enjoy while your 2021 and 2019 Napa Cabs continue to age. This wine bursts with vibrant blackberry, plum, and fragrant brown spices from the glass. Medium to full-bodied, it boasts velvety tannins with a chocolaty texture, seamlessly intertwined with rich, toasty oak notes and an undercurrent of crunchy pomegranate seed juiciness. Captivating and inviting, this wine is perfect for pairing with a meal and is best enjoyed now and frequently over the next 3-5 years. Drink 2024-2029.”*
