2020 Mourvèdre – Uplift Vineyard

Aromatic and full on the nose with Bing cherry alongside bramble berries, rose-hip and hickory smoke. Silky in texture with a medium body, perfect for flavorful dishes with medium weight like pork. A long and lingering finish that leads to notes of stone and violets.

Aged 24 months in oak barrels. 

Seared bone-in pork chops with mushroom medley.

AVA: Texas Hill Country

Formerly Hoover Valley Vineyard, Uplift Vineyard was renamed to represent the spirit of our industry, as well as the ancient geographical feature called the Llano Uplift where it is located. This feature is a product of magmatic eruption and then erosion that exposed the hardened granite and mineral beneath, which appear uplifted as a result. These 55 acres of southern French and Mediterranean grape varieties were planted in the Hoover's Valley in 2013.

Elevation: 1,500 ft. Soil: Decomposed granite with sandy loam pockets, and mineral. Vines planted in 2013.
