Hill Country Vintners - good harvest

Despite the heat, Hill Country Vintners are expecting a good grape harvest this season. According to texasfinewine.com. A cooler-than-normal spring plus early showers created a great start for vineyards across the state. The Texas Fine Wine group agrees this year’s harvest will have normal to better yields, and high quality, concentrated fruit. The heat though creates a challenge when harvesting the grapes to balance sugar ripeness with phenolic ripeness. Texas Fine Wine represents 4 Texas wineries including Bending Branch in Comfort. And Pedernales Cellars in Stonewall.
