  April 10, 2023 - Still awfully young. These Patelin rouge offerings often need a few years to settle down. The Grenache dominates now, making this a one-note offering today. Drinks more like a young Beaujolais right now. Let ‘er settle until mid-2024. Then I’ll give the screw cap another pull. Drink 2024 to 2028.

  March 14, 2023 - A little thin but earthy with food friendly acidity. It’s a darn good domestic imitation of a Cotes du Rhône.

  October 4, 2022 - Tablas Creek features Rhone style wines, often rather pricey ones, so it was nice to see one that was reasonably priced. It is a modest wine with a lovely ruby color and a fruit forward flavor with sweet red cherries as the major component. It is lacking in depth or complexity. It has a light body but a slightly bitter finish. An okay wine for everyday use.
