Circle S Vineyards – Sugar Land, Texas

Located just outside of Houston, this winery is crafting some fine Texas wines.  It’s not far at all for wine lovers in the Houston area to check out.  With a vineyard in Centerville, Texas and sourced grapes from Italy, the winemaker (Dave Stacey) has a quality selection of grapes to choose from in making his own wines.  Among the nice selection of varietals available are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Chardonnay, Magia di Amore & Ilbello (the latter two being his own signature blend).    You might come across a good bottle of jalapeno wine at certain times of the year.  Many of the wines are award winners.  Recently released is the Tre Nel Cielo which is a Montepulciano/Merlot blend plus a third, secret grape that the winemaker is very tight lipped about.  Stop by for a tasting to see if you can discern that third varietal. While you’re there, sample some of the other wines and see what you think. We think you will be happy you stopped in and gave this place a try when in the Houston area.  Help keep a good local winery going with your patronage!
