Tasting Note

A cool wintergreen minty note sets off deeper smoked meat, redcurrant, mocha, and juniper aromas. The mouth shows Grenache's sweet fruit and licorice on that attack, then deepens into notes of black cherry, chocolate, and a chorizo-like meatiness, all with tremendous mouth-coating texture. The long finish, with lingering flavors of wood smoke, roasted meat, plum skin and crushed rock, hints at more rewards to come with cellar aging. We recommend that you drink either between now and 2024 or again starting in 2027 any time over the subsequent two decades.

Product Notes

Tablas Creek Vineyard Esprit de Tablas Rouge is an exquisite Californian wine expressing a rich blend of blackcurrant and red fruit flavours, elegantly overlapped by aromatic notes of tobacco and spice. This wine is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Counoise grapes, curated immaculately to forge an expansive palate of earthy richness met with a striking tannic bite. Ageing in wooden barrels infuses it with a subtle vanillin undertone, enhancing its complexity. It boasts a fine balance between its robust character and refreshing zest, making it a perfect pairing for hearty meat dishes. Its aromatic allure truly encapsulates the essence of the Californian terroir.
