Super Texan 2016
The Story:
The “wine that made us famous” at Flat Creek Estate represents the ‘best of Texas’ in the wine category. It’s even been showcased on the Today Show! The 2016 returns with a special Italian feel, yet crafted from 100% Texas fruit!
The Tasting Notes:
The 2015 Super Texan was full of dark plums and blackberry. The 2016 Super Texan is turning back to its roots with that vibrant color, soft mid-palate and long spicy finish our followers have come to love. Cheers to our Signature Wine!
