Tablas Creek Vineyard, Rhone-style vineyard in Paso Robles, United States.
Tablas Creek is a winery in Paso Robles specializing in Rhone-style wines across 120 acres with limestone-rich soils at 1,500 feet elevation. The geographic conditions allow for cultivation of Mediterranean grape varieties that produce the wines made at this location.
The property was founded in 1989 by the Perrin family from Château de Beaucastel and Robert Haas, who introduced French vine cuttings to California. This establishment marked the arrival of authentic Rhone varieties to the California wine region.
The vineyard blends French winemaking traditions with California approaches while focusing on Rhone grape varieties like Mourvèdre, Grenache, and Syrah. The production methods reflect a balance between Old World techniques and New World innovation that shapes the character of the wines made here.
Visitors can experience wine tastings with options for indoor seating at bars or outdoor tables on the terrace. The facilities are easy to navigate and prepared for various visitor needs.
The estate received the first Regenerative Organic Certification in the wine industry and uses sheep and alpacas for natural vineyard maintenance. This combination of environmental stewardship and traditional animal husbandry is uncommon in modern wine production.
