Super Texan 2017
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 2017 Super Texan's mix of flavors and aromas are reminiscent of tart cherries, leather, earthiness, herbs, and oak, with abundant mature rustic tannins. The ruby garnet color compliments notes of violet and fig.
