13th & Third
13th & Third operates in Paso Robles, the Central Coast's dynamic wine region known for bold reds and increasingly sophisticated rosés. The winery's Grenache Rosé demonstrates the varietal's range in this warm, sun-exposed terroir—a wine that has drawn attention from major critics including Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Decanter. Grenache, traditionally associated with southern France and Spain, finds a distinctive expression in Paso Robles' limestone-rich soils and diurnal temperature swings, yielding wines with both ripeness and acidity. The winery's focus on this single expression reflects the region's shift toward quality-driven production and the growing recognition that Paso Robles can produce compelling wines beyond its Cabernet reputation.
