Texas High Plains

The 2020 Magnus from Inwood Estates Vineyards is sourced from a 1.8-hectare site in the Texas High Plains, cropped to just two clusters per vine, yielding a mere 0.5 tonnes per hectare. Fermentation takes place in open bins fitted with cooling plates, with hand punch-downs over 7–10 days, before pressing to barrel and ageing for 24 months in 50% new French oak. The nose is intensely expressive, offering blackberry, black cherry, and blackcurrant alongside tobacco spice, lifted by high-toned notes of dried wild sage and fennel. On the palate, there is real power and concentration—full-bodied with soaring tannins that mellow and resolve beautifully, making way for a lingering finish of blood orange, crushed red berries, and warm baking spices. Winemaker Dan Gatlin describes it as being crafted in the style of Ribera del Duero.
