The Texas Hill Country is the largest of the eight American Viticultural Areas of Texas, spanning 9 million acres. With diverse soil types and bedrock, including limestone and granite, and varying elevations, the potential for this region is magnificent as long as the varieties planted are resilient amongst the Hill Country's signature warmth and humidity.
