Midslope is the sister project of the wildly successful Upslope Syrah
from Thompson Vineyard in Santa Barbara. The wine is a blend of 60%
Syrah and 40% Grenache from vineyards planted in the Rasteau AOC. Once
known only for its sweet and fortified wines, Rasteau is rapidly
becoming recognized for its outstanding Grenache. Many believe that the
best wines from Rasteau resemble a well made Chateauneuf du Pape. We
believe that Midslope represents terroir in a bottle. A very good
terroir.
