Saucy Red

Saucy Red Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: Our Saucy Red wine is made from Black Spanish Grapes & was created to serve while sitting on the patio relaxing after a long hard day at work, now kick back take that first sip and then suddenly you start having visions of BBQ … no maybe a large bowl of chili … or was it a hot spicy Tex-Mex dinner. Enjoy your vision!

Varietal Definition
Lenoir:
This red-fleshed grape is a popular variety in Texas, where it is sometimes blended with Ruby Cabernet to make red table wine. It is highly resistant to Pierce’s disease, which makes it a good match for the hot and often humid Texas climate. It thrives best in deep, sandy soils. Originally, Black Spanish was used as a wine at Communion. At one time, along with Mission, Lenoir was one of Texas’s most planted varietals. Acreage in the state is now on the decline, although it still maintains a presence in the state, particularly in the few wineries located near the Gulf of Mexico.
