40% Mouvedre, 30% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Counoise. This wine often demonstrates a great deal of complexity with savoury, mineral and dark berried fruit aromas. Fine, firm tannins with a subtle ripeness, with a refreshing core. Spicy and smoky notes continue on the finish. Drink now to 2020.
Fiona Hayes - Buyer This estate is the pioneer of Paso Robles and the Rhône varietal movement in California, and they really are making wines to rival the best estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Tablas Creek benefits from a series of undulating slopes with varying exposures, based around two main hills. They have purposefully planted certain varietals on different exposures to truly maximise the potential.
