Turtle Creek Vineyard with Carl Schulse, Kyle Allen and Russ Allen
Happy Texas Wine Month! On episode 121, I'm joined by the winemaking team at Turtle Creek Vineyard - Carl Schulse, Kyle Allen, and Russ Allen. They're responsible for the recent gold medal win at Decanter, one of only four won by Texas wineries! First, in Texas wine news, I'll share thoughts on the Texas Monthly / Texas Department of Agriculture Vintners Cup list. Plus there's good press for Mason, and I've got another ticket giveaway. This one is for the upcoming Texas Hill Country Wineries Dallas Road Show. Thanks for listening! Cheers y'all!
