Another distinctive terroir that produces really fine food friendly profiles. Bing cherry meets plum tones.

Incredibly balanced blend of fruit, oak, and earth. Terroir driven flavors — concentrated black currant flavor and a velvety finish.

I have a soft spot in my heart for Walt and Hall wines, this does a lot to solidify that.

2013 WALT "Rita's Crown" Sta. Rita Hills Pinot is so fragrant and nuanced. In 6 months this young wine will be in full bloom

This was an okay cab. Depending on the price, I’d buy this. Better than most low end cabs I’ve tried. This wine was gifted.
