Tablas Creek is equally owned and run by two families: the Perrin family and Haas Family, founded in 1989. After a four-year search, the partners chose Paso Robles, California for its many similarities to the southern Rhone, and began the lengthy process of importing vine cuttings, building a grapevine nursery, and creating an estate vineyard from scratch.
Planting at the estate began in 1994, with 115 acres under vine as of 2020. Now the total production averages between 25,000-30,000 cases per year.
