A complement to our much loved Prairie Rotie, the Prairie Cuvee is a Northern Rhone-style bend of 54% Marsanne and 46% Roussanne.  Our Marsanne comes from the Reddy Vineyards of Brownfield, TX while the Roussanne is grown right down the road at the Farmhouse Vineyards in Meadow, TX.

The label is from our vault of Tony Bell art, bringing to mind those warm Texas days on the prairie. 

Aromatics: Lemon, nectarine, honeysuckle, warm baking spices and sweet florals

On the Palate: Honey, lemon zest, vanilla and mild clove with a finish of stone fruits and mild French oak

I thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Just a tease of sweet on the front with a classy finish of citrus med. body. Such a pleasant surprise in the palate. The nose presents with citrus, honey, stone fruit and a touch of herb. Paired with a lobster risotto and creamy spinach topped with sea bass. It was divine!
