Wild Child – 2019; Parr Vineyards; Mason, Texas

Parr Vineyards has been well known for producing some top-quality Mason County fruit. This blend from the estate vineyard is one way to show the many different aspects of what is grown there in addition to getting very creative with your grapes and wine production. Wild Child is a mix of six different varieties comprised of Touriga, Tempranillo, Cabernet, Graciano, Mourvèdre, and Viognier. Interesting, right? Many of you will like this wine simply because of the Texas Touriga in it!  This wine does have a touch of effervescence at first, but that dissipates after an hour or so. It is quite well balanced with just about every aroma and flavor hitting those wine senses.  The acids and tannins are still firm, but nothing a good food pairing can’t balance out.  Chilled, this melding is a great afternoon sipper as it is not too bold and fruit flavors still linger. Enjoy!
