The skies are clear, the atmospheric river is gone, and yet the heavens still keep DUMPING DEALS on us.

Our friends at Sojourn Cellars just dropped a gem in our laps. 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.

Sojourn’s Pinots are highly prized, of course. But if Pinot Noir is the only thing you know from these brilliant folks, you’re missing out. They do a small smattering of other wines from some of the best vineyards in the state. This is one of the best values that we’ve featured in recent memory.

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!

At almost 50% 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.

And for 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!
