Texas Vineyards and Wines

[texlady]

Hello from Texas. I don't know how many bottles of white zin, blush, white merlot and others I have purchased in an effort to find a wine I could enjoy. However, I had to pour out most of them because, to my taste, they were so dry it was akin to sucking on a lemon wedge. I heard a wine expert (Darryl Beeson) from the Dallas area on an NPR program recently and learned there is such a thing as "sweet" wine and I should be trying rieslings or muscat canelli. Then I was lucky enough to find wines.com and the wine board. I am learning so much and all of you are so nice about sharing your knowledge. Does anyone have thoughts about Texas wines? Armed with my new found information, I purchased a muscat canelli from Llano Estacado vineyards which was just wonderful. Messina Hof winery has some nice sounding wines: "Angel", a late harvest Johannisberg Riesling and "Glory", a late harvest muscat canelli. Has anyone tried them? Also, based on recommendations from this board, I purchased the Schmitt-Schne riesling from Germany....great! I've found the wines I can enjoy. I'm so glad I found you guys. Thanks!
