Tablas Creek Patelin de Tablas Rouge, Paso Robles

The 2021 Patelin de Tablas has a nose of blackberries and iron, with both red and black licorice notes pointing to the interplay between redder-fruited grapes like Grenache and Mourvedre and the blackerfruited character of Syrah. On the palate, tangy black raspberry and black cherry fruit, with additional notes of baker’s chocolate and a graphite-like minerality. Mouth-filling, long, and complex. Drink over the next decade.

Tablas Creek Patelin de Tablas Rouge, Paso Robles 2023	92 Decanter The Patelin de Tablas serves as a portrait of the greater Paso Robles AVA year after year. It shows the region’s ability, even if other producers may not follow suit, to produce a ripe, redolent wine at under 14% abv—aromatics of smoky rose petals, spicy chicory root and a blend of peppercorns. The palate is densely fruited while remaining light on its feet. Dark blackberries, fig and plum fruits are lifted by savoury dry herbs, crushed stone minerality and a lift of five spices. 91 OwenBargreen.com A really good wine at the entry level, the 2023 ‘Patelin de Tablas’ combines 45% Syrah with 30% Grenache and the remainder Mourvèdre and Counoise.Delicate to medium bodied red fruits parade with citrus rind, stony minerals and shades of garrigue on the palate. A wine to buy by the case, enjoy in the short-term. Drink 2024-2030. 93 James Suckling The nose is perfumed and lifted with hints of raspberries, coffee beans and rosemary. The palate is medium-bodied and fruit-driven, with chalky tannins, bright acidity and notes of blood plums, cherries and earth. Generous and bright, with a savory edge. Made from a blend of 45% syrah, 30% grenache, 23% mourvedre and 2% counoise. Drink or hold. 90-92 Wine Advocate The 2023 Patelin de Tablas Blanc is a blend of 50% Grenache Blanc, 23% Viognier, 10% Roussanne, 8% Marsanne, 8% Vermentino and 1% Bourboulenc. The nose is straightforward with aromas of yellow orchard fruits, white flowers and accents of struck flint wafting from the glass. The texture is direct and medium-bodied, with a clean, saline, crisp finish. 92 Vinous The 2023 Patelin de Tablas is incredibly fresh. From the glass, the 2023 cascades with a zesty blend of savory herbs, olives, earth tones and crushed stones. This is silky smooth with a burst of brisk acidity complementing sour cherry-berry fruits and hints of tart citrus. The finish is long-lasting, with gentle tannins that gradually fade, leaving behind lingering hints of violet pastilles and lavender. This balances ripe fruit with structure and an energetic persona to give a truly spellbinding impression.	Bottle Image Label Image Tech Sheet
