2015 Riddle Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

2015 Riddle Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

This compelling wine showcases the signature Sojourn smooth texture, balanced by amply structure for length and longevity. Its foundation is the distinctive Mt. Eden clone, which was taken as original bud wood from a prominent vineyard planted along California’s Central Coast. It provides intriguing bramble berry fruit flavors and silky tannins. Clones 115 and Pommard add layers of red fruit and earth to build complexity and balance. Rusty Gaffney (PinotFile) writes that the wine has, “admirable elegance, with opulent fruit.”

Riddle Vineyard

Sonoma Coast

Riddle Vineyard is located on a ridge in Green Valley near the town of Occidental in the West Sonoma Coast. At 750 feet above sea level, its gentle, north facing slopes overlook many of the iconic Pinot noir vineyards of the region. Foggy mornings burn off early, and the vines are drenched in warm sun for most of the day.
