Oakville Ranch Vineyard has become one of the most sought-after vineyards by Napa winemakers for top quality Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a rugged 330-acre estate tucked into a rocky shelf overlooking Screaming Eagle. Sojourn sources from three distinct blocks that combine to create a balanced wine with outstanding aging potential. It is farmed organically by the esteemed Phil Coturri in red, volcanic soils on steep inclines. We were fortunate to receive a 97 point rating on the exceptional 2019 vintage of this wine. The vineyard excelled in 2019 and the resulting wine is a collector’s treat, offering tremendous depth and aromatic intensity.

"My favorite wine from the lineup, this Cabernet Sauvignon from the Oakville Ranch Vineyard is a gorgeous wine with a more supple, and plush texture that covers a solid underlying core of elevated acidity and plush, rounded tannins. It’s aged for 20 months in 75% new French oak barrels and is one of the best Cabernets that I have ever tasted from Sojourn. Wild blackberry, cassis, pencil shavings, violet flower petal, toasted wet earth, and vanilla bean abound. It sports a lovely purity of fruit and a balance that approaches perfection. Just an incredible and delicious wine that delivers a finish that goes on for minutes. Highly recommended." - Jeremy Young, International Wine Report

"The seriously good 2019 Sojourn Cellars ‘Oakville Ranch Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning new wine that is built to age but\ also is appealing in its hedonistic youth. Stored in 75% new French oak, this gives off a touch of toasty wood, alongside blackberry pie and black forest cake tones on the nose, with loamy soil undercurrents. Once on the mouth this displays a beam of tension that plays well with refined tannins and a deep core of dark fruit flavors, with espresso ground accents." - Owen Bargreen

Oakville, Napa Valley
At 1,000 to 1,400 feet above sea level, the Oakville Ranch Vineyard looks west over Napa Valley. This high elevation and western exposure, in combination with soils of clay over volcanic rock, produce the rich, powerfully structured wines that make the vineyard one of the most sought-after in California for Cabernet Sauvignon.
