Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.

Strawberry – NV; Lehm Berg Winery; Giddings, Texas
Made from Texas-grown strawberries, this wine is a very flavorful, crisp “fruity” strawberry wine. It has just the right sweetness to compliment almost any Texas meal or serve as dessert. Sadly, this winery unfortunately closed early last year. The owner made this an...d other great wines using German style methods passed down through their family. This was one of our most unique and fun winery visits, as our stop allowed us to personally visit with the elder husband and wife team that once had this establishment. Unfortunately, the wife has since passed away and the winery has closed, but we will never forget our delightful visit with them, their hospitality and the love they put into their products. You may still be able to buy some remaining stock from the Retreat Hill Winery near Navasota, Texas. We will miss this one.
