Esprit Blanc de Tablas Roussanne Blend 2022

9.2

Yellow/golden in color.

Earthy nose with citrus, lemons, minerals, sea salt, yellow apples, spices, light earth, and light honey.

Medium-plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with citrus, apples, pears, light earth, light honey, sea salt, herbs, oak, white pepper and spices.

Long finish with lemons and light herbs.

This is a delicious white Rhône blend from Paso Robles. Elegant and rich. Fruit-forward and well-balanced.

Good right out of the bottle and gets more complex as it opens up (20 minutes) in the glass.

Drinking beautifully already, at only 2 years old, and will continue to age nicely over the next 5 to 7 years.

Complex and crisp. Spicy and interesting.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food. I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

A blend of 33% Roussanne, 32% Grenache Blanc, 14% Picpoul Blanc, 8% Clairette Blanche, 8% Picardan and 5% Bourboulenc.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

9.4

Washington State Rhône-style blend of Mourvèdre (45%), Grenache (31%), Syrah (12%), Counoise (8%), Grenache Blanc (2%) and Picpoul (2%). Bright ruby color. Aromas of black raspberry, kirsch, dried rose petals and herbs as well as smoked meat. Dark fruit on the palate as well as black olives, tobacco and black pepper. A bit of pleasant bitterness on the long finish. Fine grained tannins and a silky texture. Quite savory with a touch of Brett. A fine example of a wine that has benefited from proper aging. Spectacular vintage of this underrated wine. — 21 days ago
