Texas Hill Country

Medium

Cork

From Aglianico vines rooted in the Texas Hill Country’s Llano Uplift, growing in ancient granitic soils and surrounded by dense forest, this wine captures the essence of its place. It offers a distinctly ironstone-like minerality alongside deep forest aromatics of conifer, underbrush, and a medley of fresh herbs and spices. The palate is framed by fine-grained, cedar-edged tannins, a zesty acid backbone, and a long, mineral finish with a dusting of crushed cocoa nibs. Ripe yet bright, with an underlying mineral drive, it would pair beautifully with braised or barbecued meats in sweet sauces, or with hearty pasta dishes. 94% Aglianico, 3% Montepulciano, and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon undergo a 24-hour cold soak and are fermented in oak, followed by 16 months of barrel ageing (15% of which is new).
