JeriLynne Clifford is The Hill Country Bon Vivant

JeriLynne Clifford is The Hill Country Bon Vivant

JeriLynne Clifford, the Hill Country Bon Vivant, is a tastemaker and hospitality expert based in Fredericksburg. JeriLynne's new cookbook, The Vineyard Table, showcases Texas wineries, food, and the joys of connecting over a meal around the table. Listen to hear how she prioritizes local wines, partners with local wineries, and lives the good life in the Hill Country. In Texas wine news, I review two other new Texas wine books- a guidebook and a work of fiction. Also, Texas is mentioned as an underrated wine region in a VinePair article, there's another holiday wine bundle and corresponding holiday soiree that you'll want to check out. There's another new episode of the Go Texan Explores: Texas Wine podcast out. This one includes some additional details about Llano Estacado's big moves in both Lubbock and Fredericksburg. Cheers y'all!
