Free Shipping on Tablas Creek


Tablas Creek Vineyard - Free Ground Shipping on 6 or more bottles**

One of the best producers of Rhône style wines in Paso Robles is Tablas Creek, a winery founded by the Perrin family of Château de Beaucastel from Châteauneuf du Pape. Traditional Rhône varietals were imported from the Perrins' estate including Mourvedre, Grenache, Syrah, and Counoise for reds, and Roussane, Viognier, Marsanne, and Grenache Blanc for whites. Tablas Creek follows the traditional Châteauneuf du Pape blending tradition, creating complex, balanced, and rich wines.

Robert Parker has said that "the Central Coast's Rhône Ranger cuvées are among the most exciting developments in the wine world. While the entire region is still a work in progress, it is remarkable how many world-class wines are already emerging." Tablas Creek produces some of the most highly-rated Paso Robles Rhône style wines year in and year out, making it surprising that they can be had for such great prices. Both 2004 and 2005 were exceptional years in Paso Robles, so you can't go wrong with these selections.

2004 Tablas Creek Cote de Tablas 750ml - $16.99 (reg $19.99)
Wine Advocate, Jan 2007, 89 points: "I re-tasted a few of the 2004 reds, and the medium-bodied 2004 Cotes de Tablas (60% Grenache and 40% Syrah and Mourvedre) exhibits lovely peppery, berry fruit, roasted herb, and gamy scents. It is a top-notch example of a California version of a Cotes du Rhone."

Wine Advocate, Jan 2007, 90 points: "The introductory white is the Cote de Tablas Blanc. The 2005, a blend of 42% Viognier, 33% Roussanne, 19% Marsanne, and the rest white Grenache, offers up aromas of honeyed grapefruit, orange rind, tropical fruits, and lemon zest along with a hint of crushed rocks. Medium to full-bodied with surprising dryness as well as intensity, it should be consumed over the next 2-3 years. Tel. (805) 237-1314"

There are 3,500 cases of this beauty, which exhibits peppery, earthy, gamy, meaty characteristics intermixed with black cherry, cassis, and new saddle leather. Dense, rich, spicy, and exuberant, impressively made as well as well-balanced, it can be drunk over the next decade."
Stephen Tanzer, Sep 2006, 92 points: "Bright, deep ruby-red. Enticing aromas of black raspberry, plum, chocolate, flint and licorice. Juicy, chewy and packed with sappy flavors of red fruits, red licorice and minerals. Lovely framing acids. Dense, sweet and very long wine, finishing with firm tannic backbone."
