UV Silver Eagle Vineyard
Sonoma Coast
We are thrilled to offer a return of the Sojourn Silver Eagle Vineyard Pinot Noir. Silver Eagle is a world-class coastal vineyard located near Occidental within the West Sonoma Coast. The vineyard’s cool climate and Sebastopol series clay loam soils naturally control vigor, resulting in small, concentrated berries. In 2006, the vineyard was developed by the late Ulises Valdez, one of the top vineyard managers of the Sonoma Coast. His family continues his tradition of farming the vineyard meticulously with elite growing techniques and attention to detail.
