93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2019 Zinfandel Piner-Olivet Ranches is a blend taken from five ranches in this very unique district of the Russian River. A deep, layered wine, the 2019 shows all of the allure of the year in its open-knit, opulent personality. Super ripe red cherry/plum fruit, spice, wild flowers and blood orange are front and center in this bold, luscious Zinfandel. Vineyard sites are Papera Ranch, Carlisle Vineyard, Mancini Ranch, Montafi Ranch and Saitone Vineyard. Drink 2024-2034. (Jan 2022)"

92 points Tim Fish (Wine Spectator): "A spirited red that recalls a briar patch, with wild berry, sweet anise and white pepper flavors that race along to the vibrant, zesty finish. Drink now through 2030. 695 cases made. (7/31/2022)"

Producer notes: "Brilliant medium to medium-dark garnet-ruby. Very captivating, hi-toned aromas of macerated cherries, raspberry, and sweet brown tobacco. The nose alone makes it hard to leave the glass! The wine enters smoothly, displaying medium to medium-full body and flavors of red cherry, raspberry, and blood orange. By no means a light wine but with plenty of natural acidity, the wine dances delicately across the palate on its way to a lively, mineral-tinged finish. There’s so much in this wine to enjoy now but if you can wait, prime enjoyment should be from 2024 to 2028."
