Alta Colina Vineyard & Winery’s singular purpose is to grow superior Rhône-style wines and share them through unique, Vineyard-centric experiences. Founded in 2003, Alta Colina grows Rhônes in the heart of Paso Robles’ westside.”

“Owner, Bob Tillman, fell in love with this Adelaida District property because of its high elevation and unlimited potential for quality. A true family winery, Bob and Lynn Tillman, along with daughter Maggie and their Winemaker, are forging a legacy of quality and sustainability.”

“A high-elevation site (peaking at 1,800 feet above sea level), Alta Colina yields some of California’s most distinctive and balanced Rhônes. Thanks to steep, exposed soils of fractured shale and its proximity to the Pacific, the location ensures enough sun to mature even our latest ripening variety (Mourvèdre!) and overnight temperatures low enough to maintain natural acidity.”

“Alta Colina farms their 31-acre estate Vineyard with as little intervention as possible. Every cluster is hand harvested and minimally processed in their energy-efficient winery facility, located just downhill from the Vineyard.”

“The core Alta Colina white wines include Grenache Blanc, 12 O’Clock High Viognier, Model Citizen Roussanne, and the Claudia Cuvee Marsanne. These four white wines stand alongside their core reds–GSM, Sun Worshipper (Mourvèdre blend), Toasted Slope Syrah, Old 900 Syrah, and Ann’s Block Petite Sirah. Alta Colina also bottles one or two additional small lot wines each vintage that reflect a variety, block, or blend they think deserves the focus of a stand-alone bottling.”

Visit Alta Colina to taste the wines and enjoy one of Paso Robles’ best tasting experiences.

Maggie Tillman joins us to gently pull the cork on all that is Alta Colina Vineyard & Winery.
