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.

Merlot Rose’ – 2013; William & Chris Vineyards; Hye, Texas;
With age comes beauty and
this wonderful Rose’ is a testament to that. The flavors are still luscious and
the aroma enticing. This beautifully aged Merlot Rose’ still holds much of
its original character and lovely color. The acids are still strong, and
it presents some very pleasant fruit notes. It has a light finish
that will make you crave for more. The late freeze of 2013 saw much loss
on Texas grapes. However, this hearty survivor happily lived on to tell
its story. Very pleased with the way this Rose’ has aged and held up over
the years. Wonderful work William Chris Vineyards and cheers!
