The Tablas Creek Vineyard Esprit de Tablas is a highly regarded wine that showcases the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of Tablas Creek Vineyard. This wine is a blend of traditional Rhône varietals, including Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Counoise, together with Vaccarese and Cinsault, which are meticulously grown and hand-harvested on the estate. On the nose, the Esprit de Tablas offers a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as blackberry and plum, intertwined with notes of black pepper, dried herbs, and a hint of floral undertones. The aromas are beautifully layered and evolve with each swirl of the glass, revealing the wine's depth and complexity. The palate is equally impressive, with a rich and velvety texture that coats the mouth. The flavors are harmonious and well-integrated, showcasing a perfect balance between the fruit, spice, and earthy characteristics. Ripe black cherry, blackcurrant, and blueberry flavors dominate, accompanied by hints of licorice, forest floor, and a touch of leather. The wine's structure is firm yet elegant, with well-integrated tannins and a long, lingering finish. The Esprit de Tablas is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has excellent aging potential. With proper cellaring, it will continue to evolve and develop additional complexity over the next decade or more. This wine pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes, including grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
