Texas High Plains Mourvèdre

Blue Ostrich Winery Vineyard's Mourvèdre from the Texas High Plains is a true testament to the dynamic winegrowing potential of the Lone Star State. This red wine boasts a full body, inviting you into its depths with a rich, dark plum hue that glimmers softly in the light. Its bouquet is an enchanting blend of earthy undertones and ripe blackberries, complemented by a whisper of dried herbs, evoking the rugged landscape of its origin. On the palate, it strikes a harmonious balance between firm tannins and lively acidity, offering a refreshing yet structured experience. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with flavors of black cherry and spicy cedar rounding out the profile. This wine’s depth and complexity capture the essence of Mourvèdre, while providing a distinctly Texan twist. Enjoy it with hearty fare, as it’s particularly food-friendly and perfect for pairing with grilled meats or robust cheeses.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
