"A vividly fruity blend of crushed blueberries, dusty lavender and sweet smoke makes the delicately perfumed 2020 Rising Tides impossible to ignore. This is round and juicy in style, with a beautiful balance of zesty acidity and tart wild berry fruits that cascade throughout. Chalky mineral tones and a bitter twang of sour cherry are left to linger as the 2020 finishes with amazing length and grippy tannins. It's a blend of 69% Grenache and 31% Syrah." -Vinous

"The 2020 Rising Tides is a blend of 69% Grenache and 31% Syrah that features blueberries and red cherry jam aromas with accents of aniseed, forest floor and pipe tobacco. The medium-bodied palate is chalky and fresh with earth-laced fruits and a long, spicy finish."

"Winemaker Matt Trevisan is one of Paso's Rhône pioneers, and he uses his quarter-century of experience to deliver bold but balanced wines like this blend of 69% Grenache and 31% Syrah. Polished aromas of dark berry, hibiscus and violet lead into an ageworthy palate, where baked fruit and violet flavors culminate in a peppery, tense finish."
