Re:Rooted 210's Jen Beckmann is Planting Roots in San Antonio

Jen Beckmann's Re:Rooted 201 is helping define the Texas wine scene in San Antonio. You may know Jen from one of the Hill Country wineries where she worked before opening her own tasting spot in downtown San Antonio’s Hemisfair Park. Now a modern urban winery is the perfect setting for her to continue educating the public on Texas wine.

In Texas wine news, I'm announcing the wineries that are included in my top 5 Texas wines of 2022 event with the Wine & Food Foundation! Plus, more Texas wine content in podcast form, Best Little Wine & Books in Lockhart delivers on two of my favorite things, and a grower's perspective on the ongoing drought.

Cheers y'all!
