Tasting Notes

WS93

Smooth and focused, ripe yet delicate and balanced, offering a mix of red cherry, plum and blackberry fruit that's rich and complex without being heavy. Ends with hints of fresh earth, anise and chicory. Syrah, Grenache and Mourvedre.

WA93

The deeper-colored 2007 Rising Tides (44% Syrah, 35% Grenache, and 21% Mourvedre) reveals more licorice, damp earth, blackberry, and cassis fruit as opposed to the kirsch and raspberry characteristics found in the Sticks and Stones. With superb purity, medium to full body, ripe tannins, good freshness and definition, and a stunningly long finish, it should be drunk over the next 5-7 years.
