Perissos Vineyard and Winery with Laura and Seth Martin

Episode 118! My guests are Seth and Laura Martin, co-owners of Perissos Vineyard and Winery in Burnet, Texas. I met with Seth and Laura just before harvest and got a tour of their thriving vineyard. What a place! But first I'll run down some Texas wine news. Texas wines and wine people continue to appear in national publications, which is always exciting to see. And I've got a couple of ticket giveaways. Listen for how to enter to win a pair of general admission passes to the Fredericksburg Food and Wine Festival's Grand Tasting and a pair of passes to the Texas Hill Country Wineries' October Texas Wine Month passport event. Thanks for listening! Cheers, y'all.
