Gloriosa – 2017; Carter Creek Winery; Johnson City, Texas

Named for the fragrant flowers from the yucca gloriosa plant, this Texas High Plains AVA fruit is a great go-to warm day sipper. It’s a blend of 76% Gewürztraminer, 18% Riesling, and 6% Muscat Canelli that has a medium pale straw hue and lots of aromatic floral notes. You may discern some stone fruit and minerality with this bottle of wine, too.  As you continue your sipping session, green apples, lemons, and even apricot present themselves quite nicely. With medium acidity, this Texas white wine is keeping quite well for seven years young. Happy sipping!
