91 points Connoisseurs' Guide: "73% Zinfandel; 13% Petite Sirah; 10% Carignane; 3% Mataro; 1% Alicante Bouschet. Here is yet another Ridge Zinfandel that is both keen in focus on varietal fruit and more mannerly and polished than it is brash and powerful. To be sure, it is fairly full in weight and has a good bit of depth to its supple, balanced, straightforward personality; and it promises to be good today and good in the next several years if you decide to lay some away. GOOD VALUE. (Jul 2021)"
90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Although quite firm with tannins, this full-bodied blend of traditional California grape varieties fills out its structure nicely with ripe blackberry and black-pepper flavors. Based on Zinfandel, it's a robust wine that will make a great pairing with grilled meats and the like. Best from 2023. Alcohol 14.5%. (May 2021)"
Producer notes: "73% Zinfandel, 13% Petite Sirah, 10% Carignane, 3% Mataro, 1% Alicante Bouschet. Deep garnet-red color. Aromas of ripe raspberry and cherry fruits, fresh mint, exotic spices, with clay-earth minerals. Beautiful briary fruits on entry, medium-full body, integrated tannins, and great persistence to the finish. Alcohol 14.5%."
