Planted by Sojourn founder Craig Haserot in 2002, Home Ranch Vineyard is tucked away in the southwest corner of Sonoma Valley. Home Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon explodes with blueberry fruit flavors and silky texture. Each year we blend Cabernet Sauvignon from a neighboring vineyard to produce this complex cuvée that is a pleasure to drink in its youth but will also reward aging in your cellar up to 20 years. The signature blue fruit aromas shine through with notes of mocha and cassis. The 2019 vintage offers exceptional structure, with fine grain tannins and a long finish.

"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Home Ranch Cuvee is savory with menthol and medicinal herbs as well as dried cherry. The palate is juicy with blackberry fruit, forest floor, and pine." - Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck

"This has a nice caressing feel, despite the weight, with cassis, boysenberry and raspberry preserves rolling through and carried by ample but polished grip. The finish lets sparkles of anise and fruitcake peek through. Pretty tasty." - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator

International Wine Report
"Vines planted by founder Craig Haserot in 2002 grow the grapes for this 100% berry-soaked Cabernet that ages for 20 months in 70% new French oak. Showing dark purple in the glass with a charming nose of baked blueberry pie, bramble, dried eucalyptus, cracked cinnamon stick, and pencil shavings. The palate continues with the baked black fruit, blackberry liqueur, sweet clove and tobacco leaf with a warm savory cinnamon aftertaste. Acidity is medium plus with sweet grippy tannins that will need another 2 years in bottle before you should open." - Jeremy Young, International Wine Report
Home Ranch Vineyard
Sonoma Valley
Planted by Sojourn Founder Craig Haserot, the Home Ranch Vineyard is located just 10 minutes northwest of the town of Sonoma. The vineyard sits in a small bowl protected by the southern edge of Sonoma Mountain. The microclimate averages 3 to 5 degrees warmer than downtown Sonoma. The heat brings Cabernet Sauvignon to full maturity, for dark, concentrated wines.
