Established in 1996, Robert Clay Vineyards was founded by Paul and Nancy Buist, pioneers in Texas viticulture. Motivated by a passion for cultivating exceptional grapes, they were the first in the state to introduce the esteemed Portuguese variety, Touriga Nacional, a milestone that set a new standard for Texas grape growing. Over the years, they expanded the vineyard with three additional blocks, nurturing 15 acres of vines across their 50-acre property.
