Beautiful Red Mt estate wines made by Todd Alexander, formerly of Bryant Family, and PlumpJack - coincidentally a Texan Native, or "lost soul" to Cali. — 6 years ago

This is silly - funky natty pet-nat rose from right here in Texas. Loads of raspberry, mulled berries, spice, and cream. Delicious and gulpable. Off-dry. I’ll tell ya what - this is the first Texan winery to really turn my head and catch my attention.. their whole lineup was solid. Definitely worth checking out, but this was the star. — 6 years ago

More Texan vino courtesy of @Brendan Devine. Poured a lovely flowery red color and more than delivered for a pairing with Germantown’s finest ‘za. — 3 years ago

Say hello to my first Texan wine.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Gorgeous nose of blueberries, cooked plums, violets, light oak, vanilla, wildflowers, light herbs, spices, tobacco and black pepper.

Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, vinaigrette, coffee, light oak, vanilla, earth, licorice, spices and black pepper.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and peppercorn.

This is a nice surprise. This GSM blend is drinking very nicely now. Showing a great nose with a nice mouthfeel. Tangy and interesting. Soft and rich.

Good right out of the bottle and a good wine to have all by itself, or with food. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years.

Spicy, fruit forward and interesting. A nice porch wine that I paired with cheeses and crackers.

A blend of 60% Mourvedre, 36% Syrah and 4% Grenache. Aged in French and American oak barrels for 18 months.

14% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$50. — 4 years ago

Day 2 of Napa in the books!

Quick lunch with my friend Jason Moore of Modus Operandi Cellars. He was Weston’s (of Montagu Wines) mentor and is a fellow Texan! He submitted his wines for review for the very first time last year after 10+yrs, and received multiple 92-97pt wines. This SB is so much better than expected...tropical and explosive. Not quite on Arkenstone or Aesthete SB level, but the richness and round texture are very similar. Kiwi, stone fruit, nectarine and a melon/cantaloupe finish. If you enjoy big style SB, not sure there is a better Napa Valley one at $40. — 6 years ago

Okay, I'm Texan, and an untrained wine hooligan, so forgive me when I say that when I put my nose in this glass I smelled sweet, smoky barbeque, but in a good way! It was hard to smell anything else, but I think I picked up cherry, blackberry and toasted oak (duh?). Silky smooth on the tongue, with dark berries and vanilla. I really like this one. I can't wait to make my family eat it with pork ribs smothered in sweet BBQ sauce. Yes to this. Cheers. — 4 years ago
