Description:
Coming from the chalky, rocky, aptly named soil of Limestone Terrace in the Hill Country, the Mourvedre comes off earlier than most varieties, making it more appropriate for ros. We do a short bleed for color and flavor and move the juice into stainless to ferment. The shorter ripening period keeps the flavors lighter and brighter and the acidity balanced. A ripe stawberry note dominates the note and front palate, with a smooth texture, followed by a grippy white pepper finish that makes you reach for another sip.

About the Winemaker
Ross, Cooper, and Matt founded The Austin Winery in May 2014, establishing the first full production, grape to glass winery inside Austin city limits. Ross and cooper cut their teeth in cellars, tasting rooms, equipment warehouses, and brokerage for years before opening. After producing two red blends to wide applause, matt smith joined the teamto addnecessary structure to the Austin winery. The young team proved their concept with 3 years of busy tasting room traffic and wholesale distribution out of an industrial warehouse.In May 2017, the Austin winery moved its operation to the newly built out development, the yard, at 440 e. St Elmo Rd A1, 78745. This move opened a new chapter in the history of the winery. It was the first year producing wine with fruit exclusively grown in Texas. All subsequent vintages have been 100% Texas fruit. All future vintages will be produced in this manner, to best show case the quality and character of Texas terroir. The winery\'s case production has grown nearly 200%, facilitated by critical additions in new equipment and team members.With the move to south Austin, the winery is taking a bigger roleshaping the greater Austin community. Open six days a week, wine club members are encouraged to swing by after work for a glass and sit down to chat with a winemaker or another member of the team. On weekends,the winery hosts a larger, more diverse crowd, aiming to bring more Texas wine-lovers into the fold with friendly service and frank educational conversations. Regular dining and craft pop-ups and charity events add depth and value to the winery\'s impact on its community.
