A gorgeous offering, the 2006 Rising Tides is a blend of 44% Grenache, 42% Syrah, and 14% Mourvedre. The sexiest, most opulent wine in this portfolio, it boasts a deep ruby color along with gloriously intense candied black cherry aromas intermixed with notions of spice box, garrigue, forest floor, and licorice. Full-bodied with sweet tannins, a voluptuous texture, and beautiful purity, this stunning effort demonstrates just how delicious a blended Rhone Ranger can be.
