Tablas Creek Rose "DIANTHUS" Estate Paso Robles 750mL
| Vintage: | 2022 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The Tablas Creek Vineyard Dianthus 2022 is a blend of four estate-grown varieties propagated from budwood cuttings from the Chateau de Beaucastel estate. The blend incorporates the Rose traditions of the southern Rhone, taking its Mourvedre foundation from the solid, dry Roses of Bandol and incorporating the structure of skin contact from the rich, juicy Grenache-based Tavel. Dianthus refers to a genus of flowering plants known for their deep pink blossoms and known colloquially to gardeners as "pinks". All the grapes for this wine come from Tablas Creek's biodynamically farmed vineyard. A blend of 45% Mourvedre, 38% Grenache, 16% Counoise, and 1% Cinsaut, this wine has a lovely deep peach color. On the nose, complex aromatics of strawberry hard candy, newly cut grass, watermelon rind and sweet mint. The mouth is both lush and vibrant, with flavors of red cherry, pepper spice, and chalky minerals. But it was the texture that we found most noteworthy, mouth-filling and serious, with a saline edge and a lingering finish with salted watermelon and yellow rose petal notes. A Rose to convert people who don't think pink wines can be serious. Drink before the end of 2025. |
