97 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2013 Chardonnay Ritchie Vineyard is translucent and weightless, yet also magnificent in its depth. Graphite, slate, smoke, incense, lemon and white peach emerge from the glass, but only with great reluctance. The Ritchie is the most reticent wine in this range, but it is in many ways the most intriguing. Intensely mineral and nuanced, the 2013 Ritchie will thrill those lucky enough to own it for another decade-plus. I can't wait to see how this develops in bottle. The 2013 was done in 100% new oak, yet there is virtually no trace of oak at all. Drink: 2017-2027. (Jan 2015)"
94 points Robert Parker: "The full-bodied, dense ruby-hued 2013 Pinot Noir Ritchie, which comes from the Calera clone of Pinot Noir, reveals plenty of beet root, forest floor, Asian hoisin sauce, plum, blackcurrant and cherry notes, as well as terrific fruit and richness. Drink 2016-2028. (Dec 2014)"
93 points Wine Spectator: "Full-bodied, rich and lively, with a mix of currant, blackberry and blueberry framed by tight tannins and acidity, both of which lend this structure. Most impressive on the finish, where the flavors gain depth and nuance. Drink now through 2024. (2/3/16)"
