Texas Wine
In a state known for its cowboys, cotton fields, big oil and free roaming cattle, grape growing (or winegrowing) is frequently overlooked as a cornerstone of Texas agriculture and agricultural history. The budding Texas wine industry has grown wildly in the last two decades bringing the full number of Texas winery licenses to just over 400 statewide (and growing) and boasts over 5,000 acres of fruit bearing vines planted. These statistics have placed Texas as the 4th in the country for wine production, 7th for grape growing and 2nd for growth in wine tourism. As the wine industry continues to weave its way into the agricultural tapestry for which Texas is known, we support our grape growers with 100% or our fruit sourced from the Texas High Plains and Texas Hill Country AVA’s.

2019 Ghost Tracks
This blend of 45% Albarino, 45% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Fiano is named for the notorious San Antonio urban legend. The story tells of ghostly children that push vehicles stalled on the train tracks to safety. The blend of Albarino and Sauvignon blanc needed that small push of barrel aged Fiano to make a rounded and vibrant blend.

2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet is the undisputed king of Bordeaux and Napa Valley and remains one of the most widely respected varieties in the world.

Loving the high elevation and extreme heat of the High Plains, this cabernet is as complicated as it is pretty.
