Notes From the Winemaker:

The Tablas Creek Vineyard Patelin de Tablas Rosé is a rosé blend in the tradition of Provence, produced from three red Rhône varietals: Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Counoise, with an addition of Vermentino. The wine incorporates fruit from eleven top Rhône vineyards in Paso Robles, each vineyard selected for its quality. Like most rosé wines from the Rhône Valley, it is based on the bright strawberry fruit and fresh acidity of Grenache, with additions of deeper red fruit and structure from Mourvèdre, spice from Counoise, and citrusy lift from Vermentino -- a white grape that is increasingly important in many Provence rosés.

Tasting Notes:

A pretty peach color, a touch deeper than most recent vintages. On the nose, vibrant aromatics of fresh nectarine, wild strawberry, and jasmine. The mouth is rich with fruit but dry and bright, with flavors of strawberry tart and salted watermelon, vibrant acids, and a mouth-watering finish with notes of yellow raspberry and rose petals.

Ratings & Reviews

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Soft peach, watermelon and rose petal aromas hold their poise for days on the nose of this blend of 71% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 8% Vermentino and 1% Counoise. The palate is energetic and and stony in texture, offering crisp pomegranate and orange peel flavors.

92 Points - James Suckling

“Fresh and vibrant Provencal-style rosé with notes of watermelon, red apples and crushed strawberries. The palate has a medium body with focused acidity, showing nectarines, lemons and mandarins. A blend of 71% grenache, 20% mourvedre, 
8% vermentino and 1% counoise. Drink now.”

91 Points - Vinous Media

“A pale pink, the 2023 Rosé Patelin de Tablas opens in the glass with a blend of dusty rose and white strawberries complemented by hints of lemon oil. It balances ripe orchard fruits and sweet spice with cool-toned acidity to unfold a juicy and energetic display. The 2023 resolves nicely crunchy and long with a salty edge that keeps the taster looking for 
more. Beautifully done.”
