The McPherson family has been a pioneering family in Texas grape growing and wine making for over 40 years. Our label was created in 2000 to honor the winemaker's father, Dr. Clinton "Doc" McPherson, considered one of the "Fathers" of the modern Texas wine industry. Our winery and tasting room opened in fall of 2008. From his start in the Texas wine industry, Kim McPherson has advocated the importance of growing varieties that best fit our Texas terroir and "planting to the land." We focus on warm-climate varieties that he feels are best suited for Texas's soils and climate.
