Overview

After building the highly successful Realm Cellars in Napa Valley, vintner Juan Mercado set his sights on Paso Robles with the vision of cultivating a globally respected wine brand.

Details

Based largely on Grenache with a splash of Syrah, the 2021 Doyan is a bigger, richer wine that has a full-bodied, concentrated style as well as beautiful purity in its darker berry fruits, chocolate, graphite, and peppery spice-like aromas and flavors. An incredibly successful 2021, it has fine-grained tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish.

About Riise

Mercado founded RIISE in 2019 to produce world-class Rhone varietal and Tempranillo-based wines that are powerful, textural, and light on their feet. The fruit comes from three estate properties and several of the area’s other most acclaimed vineyard sites, the majority of which are overseen by top vineyard managers Kevin Wilkinson and Lucas Pope. The wines are brought to life by winemaker Anthony Yount.

The RIISE winemaking philosophy is one of minimalism, with the vineyards and varietals given the chance to shine through in their purest expressions. Texture forms the backbone of these wines, which are an exercise in balance and grace. We have four offerings: Doyen Red Wine is a blend of primarily Grenache with the addition of Mourvèdre and Syrah; Peace Red Wine is a Syrah-based blend; Jovian Red Wine is Tempranillo-based with Rhone varietals blended for softness; and Fermin Reserve Red Wine is currently composed predominantly of Syrah, though this wine will be ever-changing from vintage to vintage, driven by each year’s most stunning lots.
