I recently visited the Grape Creek Vineyards in the Texas Hill Country (near Fredericksburg) and HIGHLY recommend you stop by for a tasting if you are around. Everything I tried was amazing. And the black label tasting was completely worth the $5 cost.

This was a very smooth, easy to drink wine. Not a lot of flavor. Great on a summer day.

This is one of the sweetest white wines I've had in a while. Agree with previous reviewer that it's a great summer wine. This was a great find!

This wine definitely needs to breathe before you drink it or it's quite bitter. After that, it's a smooth drink.

One of the yummiest cheap wines I've found.
