Named for the fermentation technique, our Carbonic Grenache is meant to be enjoyed cold on a hot day. Complex aromas of rhubarb pie and dried raspberry. The palate is soft and supple with a velvety texture. Flavors of fresh strawberries and dried hibiscus petals lead to a long, seamless finish.

Inspired by old world producers and new world benchmarks, our GSM has been a bulwark of the lineup since the first vintage in 2007. Always a stellar food accompaniment, our GSM has trended toward a greater concentration of Grenache over the last decade. The latest edition of our signature GSM comes with aromas of Paso garrigue, dark plum, black cherry, and a basket of potpourri. A beautiful, broad entry brims with flavors of dried cherries and raspberry iced tea, leads to a medium bodied mid-palate with a long, structured finish.

One of our signature reds, Toasted Slope embodies everything that makes Paso a world-class Syrah growing region. Grown on the largest contiguous section of Alta Colina Vineyard, “Toasted Slope” is our nickname for the southwest-facing hillside where we grow this wine. Sun soaked and warm, this signature Syrah is a great example of the potential for blockbuster Syrahs from Paso Robles. Aromas of blueberry reduction sauce, hints of green peppercorn, and graphite. The palate is filled with flavors of blueberries and cream, blackberry cobbler, and baking spices.
