Parr Vineyard

 

Robb and Dilek Parr established Parr Vineyards in 2006 on 15 acres in Mason, Texas. The vines here thrive in well-drained soil and a cool microclimate which allows the grapes to grow in a diurnal shift with warm days and fairly cool nights, retaining a vibrant acidity that increases the aging potential of the wines made from Parr grapes.
