Wine Advocate (97)The single-vineyard Cinsault 2021 Newk was named for musician Sonny Rollins Newk, for Parra, the wildest jazz musician of recent times. He says he finds the wine wild, full of energy and minerality. It was produced with grapes from an old vineyard in Guarilihue that is worked by horse, from vines planted on decomposed and rocky granite soils with some iron and a sandy and silty texture. It fermented with 100% full clusters after four or five days with native yeasts and a total maceration time of 55 days, then the wine matured in an oak vat for 11 months. It has 13.5% alcohol and is austere and sharp, mineral and stony. It's a bit reductive and opens up to notes of fresh blood and iodine, a little Gonon with that herbal side. The palate is phenomenal; it's deep and has grip and is mineral and intense with energy, direct and not shy. Superb. 1,537 bottles were filled in February 2022. This has a strong personality and feels very complete. |

The Wine Independent (97)A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot, and 1% Petite Sirah, the fruit for the 2021 The Bard comes from sites across the valley, including some estate fruit and some sourced fruit. Deep garnet-purple colored, it shoots from the glass with vibrant notions of crushed black currants, red currant jelly, black raspberries, and pencil shavings, giving way to notes of lilacs, dark chocolate, and a waft of spearmint. The full-bodied palate is firm with ripe, fine-grained tannins and a lively backbone framing the tightly wound red, black, and blue fruit flavors, finishing with great length and a real skip in its step. |

Oozing opulence, Ridge Sonoma County Three Valleys 2021 is the manifestation of the vineyard's zealous dedication to mastery. Cultivated amidst the unparalleled terroir of the Sonoma County, three distinguished valleys contribute to this complex blend, primarily wedded from Zinfandel, with Petite Sirah, and Carignane to complete the symphony. Under the meticulous stewardship of winemaking veteran Paul Draper, the wine undergoes a uniquely bespoke vinification process. Hand-harvested grapes are rigorously selected, after which a full native fermentation imparts unmatched authenticity. Matured exquisitely in American oak barrels, this wine exudes richness and debonair character. Overflowing with vibrant fruit expressions, threaded with subtle savoury spice undertones and soft tannins, Ridge Sonoma County Three Valleys 2021 is a radiant exemplar of Californian winemaking prowess. Robust, yet refined, this wine is an invigorating sensory journey coupled with impressive ageing potential. Truly, it brings the splendour of Sonoma right to your glass. |

Wine Spectator (95)Inviting, with gorgeous flavors of mulberry and raspberry preserves gliding through, backed by a sparkle of anise, a floral note and a flicker of savory. Kicks into second gear on the finish, with pomegranate and plum accents checking in as well, without losing any energy. Best from 2024 through 2032. 425 cases made. |
