Presidio – 2019; Saba Winery; Mason, Texas

This slight twist on a Rioja style blend is quite nice and bold. Sourced from Texas High Plains AVA, rich dark jam notes will greet you at first for this blend of Tempranillo 80% and Souzao 20%. There is a slight grippiness after the initial sip or two, so just be prepared. Acids are about medium for this Texas red wine blend with a big mouthfeel. It might hold for a few more years if you would like to reminisce about the former winery’s days since it has now permanently closed. If you happen to still have any bottles or can source any, you cannot go wrong with a good meat pairing for this wine. Sip and feast well. Cheers!
