VINsider Collector's Edition

Because of the high demand and the limited availability of our library wines, we have a waiting list for the Collector’s Edition. We add members subject to available space, in the order in which we received registrations. Meanwhile, waiting list members get all the benefits of VINsider Wine Club membership.

Collector’s Edition members have exclusive access to library vintages of Esprit de Beaucastel/Esprit de Tablas wines that have aged in ideal conditions in our own cellars since the 2003 vintage. Members also receive an increased allocation of our newest Esprit de Tablas wines. Membership in the Collector's Edition is limited, so we encourage you to join the waiting list. Members receive all the benefits of VINsider membership, plus:

• Choose from Classic, Red Wine Selection or White Wine Selection VINsider shipment in spring
• Special 12-bottle Collector's Edition shipment in fall. Members receive the Classic shipment plus an exclusive collection of library vintages and an increased allocation of current Esprit wines
• Receive occasional exclusive offers on other library wines from Tablas Creek Vineyard
• Fall shipment includes a 25% case discount and is shipped at no charge

The wines featured in the fall 2022 Collector's Edition shipment will be:

• 2 bottles of 2014 Esprit de Tablas (A classic, lushly fruity vintage of our flagship Mourvèdre-based red wine; 94 Vinous, 93 PDWR, 98 BevX)
  
• 1 bottle of 2016 Esprit de Tablas Blanc (Our flagship white from the powerful, drought-reduced 2016 vintage; 93 Vinous, 96 Suckling, 95 Bargreen)

• 1 bottle of 2020 En Gobelet (Our blend sourced exclusively from dry-farmed, head-trained vineyard blocks)
  
• 1 bottle of 2020 Grenache (Our small-production varietal bottling of the Rhone's most planted red grape, vibrant and juicy)
  
• 1 bottle of 2021 Grenache Blanc (Our varietal bottling of this lovely southern Rhone white grape that we introduced to California, citrusy and textured)
  
• 1 bottle of 2021 Patelin de Tablas Blanc (Our "neighborhood" blend showing off Grenache Blanc's brightness and Viognier's lushness)

The price of the shipment will be $512.25 (a 25% member savings off the list price of $683) plus applicable taxes. Shipping is included in Collector's Edition shipments.

Notes on the library wines from a July 2022 tasting are available on the Tablas Creek blog.

Each summer, we invite members of the waiting list to upgrade in waves. If you are on our waiting list, you should look for an email in July letting you know if you've made it into the club. Depending on the response we get to the first wave of invitations, we may invite additional waiting list members. If you have any questions, please email wineclub@tablascreek.com or call 805.237.1231 x236.

You can manage your membership information in the "my account" section of our Web site. Please contact us with any questions.
