Advance Tasting Program

Since 1978, the Advance Tasting Program (ATP) continues to provide members the opportunity to receive very limited, single-vineyard wines. Though past releases have included several other varietals, zinfandel and Rhone blends remain our primary focus. Each ATP selection reflects Ridge's winemaking style, which strives to preserve the distinctive qualities of geographic location, as well as grape varietal. ATP wines receive the same careful attention given other Ridge wines, including monthly topping-off and quarterly racking of barrels, analysis, and of course frequent tasting. The finest parcels of each vineyard are fermented separately, combined, then aged (almost entirely) in american oak barrels supplied by the country's oldest and finest coopers.

• Limited, single-vineyard wines
• Available winery-direct only
• Released first to members
• 9 shipments per year
• 2, 4, 6, or 12 bottles per shipment
• Invitations to member-only events
• Complimentary tastings for each member and one guest at our tasting rooms. This benefit is extended to family and friends in the months of February and July.
• Discount on all purchases of current release wines: 10% on 1-11 750 mL bottles or the equivalent volume; 15% on 12 x 750 mL or more.

You will receive the most recent shipment upon enrollment.
