Cranberry, cherry and traditional Texas light-bodied style are key features to this wine. The underlying notes of leather on the nose remind you you’re in Texas!
The 2016 Texas Montepulciano is comprised of grapes from the Texas Hill Country & the Texas High Plains. It is lighter than our previous 2015 Montepulciano. Much of the difference in weight can be attributed the different barrels each wine was aged in. The 2015 was aged in Hungarian Oak, notorious for its ability to increase mid-palate. The 2016 vintage was aged in Russian Oak, an oak known for its sweeter aromas and elegance in the mouth. The black cherry notes and rustic old-world style remain in both vintages!
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.
The 2015 Texas Hill Country Syrah is a blend of grapes from Flat Creek Estate and neighboring Hoover Valley Vineyards. Traditional blueberry and blackberry notes are blended with woodsy cedar to produce an aggressive Texas-style red wine. The wine begs for pork belly or Ukranian Aspic.
This medium-bodied, dry red wine is a blend of Texas High Plains Dolcetto & Zinfandel with a little Texas Hill Country Petite Sirah. Expect flavors of black cherry cola and a soft earthy mushroom finish derived from the Texas Hill Country Petite Sirah.
This dry, medium-bodied wine is a great pairing for your bar-b-que fare. Its supple tannins will match perfectly with smoked meats. Blackberry fruits and a hint of cinnamon are found on the palate. Cheers to Texas Tempranillo!

Taste this against our non-reserve Super Texan 2016 to see what effects extended barrel aging and unique blends can have on a wine. Same vintage year but, totally different wine! Cranberry with a hint of star anise arises from the glass as you swirl. On the palate you'll notice plenty of jammy red fruits...cherries, cranberries, strawberries. The smooth tannins and easy finish make this a great porch sipper as you watch the sunset!
This Old World style wine exhibits subdued fruit notes and an abundance of acidity. You’ll notice a slight licorice hint on the nose with moderate fruit aromas. The palate presents a soft tannic structure with a clean limestone finish. Enjoy with Bacon Wrapped Shrimp and a side of Guacamole.
This full-bodied, dry red wine is exactly what Texas Cabernet Sauvignon should taste like. Brick red in color with traditional licorice notes and none of the bell pepper notes that can be an indicator of under-ripe fruit. Cellar a few cases so you can pop a cork every time you enjoy that Texas steak hot off the grill!
The 2014 Four Horsemen opens with aromas of thyme and juniper berries. The winter notes continue on the palate with a pleasant sugarplum and anise essence. The finish leaves your mouth salivating for more. Enjoy with Duck Confit or creamy blue cheese...we love the “Ewe Calf to be Kidding Me” cheese from Antonelli’s.
Sour cherry aromas are joined by crushed violet notes. Its ‘medium to full-bodied structure and velvety tannins are completely in balance. Enjoy this wine today or for years to come!
This richly tannic wine expresses Petite Sirah’s traditional blackberry jam characteristics with an underlying smokiness. The bright acidity and supportive oak fill the mouth and balance the intense tannins. Enjoy this wine with venison, wild boar or other hearty meats.
