"Longtime winemaker Neil Collins continues to master the tapestry of Rhône varieties that this winery imported and nurtured, including new counterparts like Terret Noir. This nine-vineyard blend, which includes 1% of that grape as well as 54% Syrah, 29% Grenache, 13% Mourvèdre and 3% Counoise, offers aromas of cherry, red flower and light earth on the seamless nose. The palate is chalky in grip and layered in cherry, plum and spicy pepper flavors." -MK, 3/1/24

"The 2022 Patelin de Tablas is a blend of 54% Syrah, 29% Grenache, 13% Mourvèdre, 3% Counoise and 1% Terret Noir. It begins with broody scents of tar and underbrush before unfolding to dark berries, dried lavender, tea leaves and spicy tones. The medium-bodied palate is soft and juicy with a long, earthy finish. It's easy to drink and approachable straight from the bottle. 4,500 cases produced." -EB, 12/29/23
