Score 89/100 · Josh Raynolds, Nov 2013

Bright ruby-red. Smoky cherry and dark berry scents are complicated by notes of dried rose and rhubarb. Sweet black raspberry and cherry-cola flavors pick up a hint of bitter chocolate with air and show very good depth. Dusty tannins give firm grip to the finish, with the cherry and floral notes echoing.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2014-2021, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Aug 2013

Bright and perfumed, with notions of crushed berries, blueberry, violets, toasted spice and chocolate, the 2011 Pinot Noir Rita’s Crown offers up a rocking palate that carries medium-bodied richness, notable purity and a layered, character-filled personality. Drink 2014-2021. A relatively new project that was created in 2009, this is a serious lineup of high quality Pinot Noirs. Tel. (707) 933-4440; www.waltwines.com
