The Story

The Tablas Creek Vineyard 2022 Esprit de Tablas is our flagship red blend, chosen from the best lots of six estate- grown varieties propagated from budwood cuttings from the Château de Beaucastel estate. The wine is based on the dark red fruit, earth, spice and mid-palate richness of Mourvèdre, with additions of Grenache for forward fruit, approachability and lushness, Syrah for mineral, aromatics, and back-palate tannins, Counoise for brambly spice and acidity, as well as the dark, herby Vaccarese and the juicy, spicy Cinsaut
