Tasting Note

Rocky, smoky and volcanic on the nose, with a fine line in wild hedgerow berries behind that stoniness, then flowers and a touch of light spice (from the 30% whole cluster fermentation). It's a compelling nose that plays crispness off against depth and spice. On the palate, notes of fallen leaves, black tea, raw cacao and smoky minerality add an autumnal side to the rosehip, black plum and morello cherry fruit. Sojeau is a cool site towards the southern end of the Eola-Amity hills, directly facing the Van Duzer corridor, and this comes across clearly in this measured, elegant 2018 that shows off a lovely combination of depth and drive.

Product Notes

Walter Scott Sojourner Pinot Noir is an elegant, full-bodied wine hailing from America's vibrant Oregon vineyards. This wine is rich in sensual aromas of black cherries, forest fruits and exotic spices, coupled with a sumptuous hint of dark chocolate. It delivers a complex yet harmonised flavour profile, boasting a velvety texture and a nuanced finish. The palate presents a delightful balance between acidity and ripe tannins, beautifully reflecting the wine’s character. Ageing in French oak barrels perfectly accentuates its intensity, without overpowering, making Walter Scott Sojourner a distinguished indulgence, sure to captivate the most discerning of oenophiles.
