The quality of wine produced in non-California states is improving all over the country. Texas wines have come a long way in the last 5 years. Texas wines are winning awards in blind tastings with California and French wines. Check out Flat Creek's Super Texan. McPherson's Sangiovese, Spicewood's Chardonnay, San Martino's Zinfindel, Becker's Viognier, Llano Estacado's Viviano for starters. Cheers!
