Growing Conditions

From the Texas High Plains, with expansive sun and wind exposure, Tannat matures in mineral-rich clay soils. Sparse rainfall and deep roots contribute to its powerful tannin and dark fruit depth.

Winemaking

This Tannat is a force of nature—inky purple in color, with aromas of ripe plum, black licorice, and smoldering smoke. The palate is powerful, with dark, concentrated fruit wrapped in muscular tannins and earthy depth. Grown in the Texas High Plains, the vineyard sees fierce sun, wind, and low rainfall, which stress the vines just enough to develop remarkable structure. This is a wine built for long meals and long cellaring—intense, ageable, and deeply expressive of its rugged terroir.
