Grilled Steaks or hearty Beef
Stews.
tasting notes
The 2015 Côtes de Tablas
has a spicy Grenache-led nose, despite the relatively high
percentage of Syrah: wild strawberry, mint, fresh figs, and
an undertone of chorizo-like meatiness. In the mouth, lifted
fruit is balanced with richness, like strawberry shortcake, with
complicating flavors of Mexican hot chocolate, cola, and fresh
dates. Drink now and over the next decade
winemaker's insight
The Tablas Creek Vineyard Côtes de Tablas is a blend of four
estate-grown Rhône varietals: Grenache, Syrah, Counoise and
Mourvedre. Like most wines of the Southern Rhône, it showcases
Grenache, featuring that grape's characteristic generous fruit and
refreshing acidity, balanced by the spice and mineral of Syrah,
the appealing briary wildness of Counoise and the structure of
Mourvèdre.
