"Decent solo wine with not as much bite as a normal ZIN but I guess it's to be expected from a blend. Three Valleys is lower on the Ridge target spot"

"Finish: persistent; While far from the high-end Ridge zins, it became quite satisfying once it opened up, which took an hour or so. Before then, somewhat run-of-the-mill."

"Wine Advocate 06-2006
Robert Parker
This venerable producer, with as fine a track record as any winery in the world, continues to turn out high quality Zinfandels...
RIDGE 2004 THREE VALLEYS PROPRIETARY RED --- SCORE: 89
Thrifty consumers will no doubt get a juicy charge from the 2004 Three Valleys, a 15,000-case proprietary blend of 68% Zinfandel, 11% Carignane, 10% Syrah, and the rest Petite Sirah and Grenache. A pretty, elegant wine with lush raspberry and black cherry fruit, a seductive texture, medium body, 14.1% alcohol, and beautiful integration of acidity, wood, and tannin, it should drink well for 2-3 years."
