Tablas Creek Proprietary White "ESPRIT BLANC" Paso Robles 750mL
| Vintage: | 2022 |

| Description: | Tablas Creek was founded by the Perrin family of Château de Beaucastel and their importer, Robert Haas. The goal was to produce California's best examples of southern RhĂ´ne 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 emphasizes dry farming (no watering) to seek maximum expression from their grapes, and they farm organically. Their signature white is named Esprit de Tablas, and is modeled after the Beaucastel wines from the Rhone Valley. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 94 Points - "Tablas Creek is a singular gem in the world of California wine. Very few wineries can successfully straddle producing an accessible array of entry-level wines, a diverse and complete set of middle-range curiosities and world-class top cuvĂŠes, all while leading the way through intentional, progressive farming. No other producer in Paso Robles, and few in all of California, can approach the versatility and thoughtfulness across such a diverse lineup while maintaining an unwavering stance that highlights balance, nuance and timelessness.". "The 2022 Esprit de Tablas Blanc combines 33% Roussanne, 32% Grenache Blanc, 14% Picpoul Blanc, 8% Picardin, 8% Clairette Blanche and 5% Bourboulenc. The nose is collected and composed, entering with a waxy, nutty richness lifted by succulent, energetic fruit aromas that gain intensity rapidly. The palate shows a beautiful balance of power, nuance and lift, with a mellow, soft texture lined with vibrant acidity through the rich, saline-tinged finish." |
