Lot #802. Tablas Creek Esprit de Beaucastel 2010

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 94 WA.
"Opening up considerably since I tasted it from barrel, the 2010 Esprit de Beaucastel is a superb blend of 45% Mourvedre, 30% Grenache, 21% Syrah and 4% Counoise that was aged all in foudre. It delivers loads of ripe blackberry, plum, licorice, roasted herbs and hints of flowers to go with a medium to full-bodied, rich and mouth-filling profile on the palate. Textured, layered and rich, with a firm underlying core of tannin, this superbly balanced beauty should be given 2-3 years of bottle age and then consumed over the following decade." Wine Advocate #208, Aug 2013
Provenance: The Patate Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $40
