| Description: | Chteau de Beaucastel is one of the most prominent producers in France's Chateauneuf-du-Pape region, and was even named as Wine Spectator's Wine of the Year in 1991. The owners of Beaucastel teamed up with their importer, Robert Hass, and searched up and down California, seeking the appropriate combination of soil and sun so they may produce California's best examples of southern Rhne varietals and Chateauneuf-du-Pape style blends. The partners chose a 120-acre property in the hills of westside Paso Robles for its similarities to Chateauneuf-du-Pape: limestone soils, favorable climate, and rugged terrain. Tablas Creek's "Patelin" series of wines are very unique. There are several vineyards in the Paso Robles region that were planted with cuttings sourced from Tablas Creek's own selections of budwood. Some of these vineyards had unclaimed grapes, and since the quality was high, Tablas Creek stepped in and began to produce this "hometown" bottling. The Tablas Creek "Patelin de Tablas Rouge" is a Paso Robles take on a classic Rhne blend: Syrah, Grenache, Mourvdre, and Counoise. The wine incorporates fruit from several of the top Rhne vineyards in Paso Robles, each vineyard selected for its quality. Like many red wines from the Rhne Valley, it is based on the dark fruit, mineral and spice of Syrah. To that Syrah, the winery incorporates the brightness and fresh acidity of Grenache, the structure and meatiness of Mourvdre, and a small addition of Counoise for complexity. |
