All Things Go Robert Clay Red Blend 2018

Regan Meador somehow quiets shouting grapes to a whisper. All Good Things is...all good things - a blend of Texas Tempranillo, Merlot, and Ruby Cabernet at about 11% - how he gets to these levels I have no idea. This is stemmy and light, brambly and harmonic. And you can taste the individual contributions - spiced cedar (Tempranillo), blackberry and raspberry jam (Merlot), and red currant cinnamon (Ruby Cab). — 5 years ago

Basics of Life Mataro Dolcetto 2017

Regan Meador uprooted his Long Island operation and moved it to Texas after permit battles over a tasting room. The second chapter would focus on grapes grown best in the Texas Hill Country. In this instance, Mataro and Dolcetto. This is an important turning point for Texas wine - not on the wave of sweet jammy reds or unremarkable rose’. Relying instead on place and time.

If gamay would ripen a bit, it would be this blend. It has a crimson brick color and piney red berries. 100% stem inclusion. The Dolcetto gives a dark dried fruit flavor profile. Raisins and dried bing cherries. And fresh salty minerals.
