I have posted the 2015, but not this one (to my knowledge). Whereas 2015 is definitely more strawberry crush and red fruited in general, this 2016 is more watermelon, pink grapefruit, and mango on the front. The wine is very acidic on the front. The wine is of medium weight with sharp acid. There is a little less fruit here than the 2015 overall. The wine is still rather solid to the finish with the watermelon and mango notes, some kiwi here as well. I think this has very good aging potential. I think the 2016 Rose wines from the TX Hill Country are all less strawberry on a whole. But all, with exception to one thus far, are pretty damn delicious. — 8 years ago
Not usually a white fan, this was fabulous.

This Chardonnay has rounded sugars, a peach flower nose, marzipan with strong fruit on the palate, nutty toasted pecan finish that's not cloying at all. A really surprising wine! — 9 years ago

Becker 2012 Cabernet Franc reserve. Bingham vineyards. Very good. — 11 years ago
This is outstanding. One of the best Texas red wines I've had. Blackberry, cocoa powder, tobacco, violets, with a little briar that isn't off putting. Smooth tannin structure. — 11 years ago
Great white wine. Aged in oak so pairs well with flank steak. — 7 years ago
Ratings are biased by the logo. Again this is a wine that would fetch 91 or 92 if served blind. Crisp front with green apple and a little bit a Buttah. The middle is a little more hefty, melon and honeydew. Finish is acidic. Lots of activity going on here. Wine went well with a Caesar salad and cheese. Better when served colder and without acoutrement. Our winner of the whites during the last visit. Great QPR. — 8 years ago
Nice and peppery but still well balanced. I can tell these flavors are already evolving a lot. — 8 years ago
Serious stuff, very pure red and blue fruits. Tannins are still high so if I drank this again soon I would definitely have it with food. I think I'll put at least 1 bottle of this down for 5 years and then revisit to see where this goes. — 8 years ago

This sangria is not overly sweet, which is good. It has full-bodied flavor, very fruity. If you like sweeter sangria, use some no-cal sweetener. You can skip the extra sugar! — 11 years ago

OK, so the first one of the new vintage went down tonight! And, dare I say that I think that this one is going to hold just as well as the 2015. I still need to take one of these to the lockup. This seems to be a more acidic Viognier than the 2015. Mouthfeel on entry is thicker than the wine evolves to be. First is a lot of mango and a hint of kiwi, and ends with more acidic citrus notes with a hint of honeysuckle. Bought slightly more of this than the Roussanne. Haven't had any of that yet, but soon! — 8 years ago
2016 Hensell Rose by Kuhlman. New release. Lots of bright acidity. Young strawberry, some watermelmon, citrus, and minerality, in the middle and finish. Crisp. Damn fine for a day like today. Winemaker from Provence France. 100% Mourvedre Rose, and absolutely beautiful wine for a day like today. — 8 years ago
Holy shit that was good! I usually try to describe the fruit notes and sweetness and tannins...this review does not need that . Inwood is a stand out Texas vintner. Try it. Do it. You won't be disappointed. — 8 years ago
