With
only 10 barrels made, winemaker Randy Hester has produced a quality gem from
this Texas High Plains fruit. The garnet hue and silky texture are just the tip
of the tasting experience with this pleasing wine. Cocoa notes unfold after the
initial pour followed by a bit of blueberry. There is just a hint of tobacco on
the nose of this one as well. Brace yourself for the bold taste of herbs and
luscious red fruit along with a touch of vanilla with that first sip. Great,
right? Your senses will also detect well-integrated acids and tannins making
this bold beauty a very lovely wine for sipping on its own or pairing with a
nice meal. Go big, go bold, go home happy with this fantastic Tempranillio. Cheers!
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.
