  • Johnson City wineries

    Shelly’s podcasts are so informative. For example. Some of her recent podcasts provided very helpful information about the various wineries near Johnson City, Texas. We recently stayed in the area, visited several wineries and had one of our best visits to the Hill country. Thank you Shelly for your tremendous commitment to Texas wines . Richard P

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Chase Jones of Slate Theory Winery
Q: Tell me a little bit about the Jones family and how you guys ended up here.
Chase describes a rapid evolution from Midland roots and wedding-venue plans to planting vineyards and forming Slate Mill Wine Collective, ultimately moving to their current winery and expanding to 110 acres with a strong focus on branding and hospitality.
Blanc Du Bois: The Most Planted White Grape Variety in Texas with Fran Pontasch
Q: What range of wines can Blanc Du Bois produce, and how does harvest timing affect style?
Depending on picking time, Blanc Du Bois can yield citrusy, high-acid wines when harvested early, or more tropical notes if left to ripen longer; the grape supports sparkling, dry, off-dry, and fortified styles, giving winemakers broad stylistic freedom.
Blanc Du Bois: The Most Planted White Grape Variety in Texas with Fran Pontasch
Q: What are the key viticultural traits of Blanc Du Bois relevant to Texas growers?
The grape is a hybrid with a strong disease resistance profile, particularly against Pierce's disease, and benefits from vigilant canopy management to maximize airflow and reduce spray needs; it often performs well on its own roots and tolerates floods and drought, simplifying some climate challenges.
Blanc Du Bois: The Most Planted White Grape Variety in Texas with Fran Pontasch
Q: How did Blanc Du Bois first arrive in Texas, and what makes it stand out as a Texas grape?
Fran explains that Blanc Du Bois originated in Florida through breeder John Mortenson, who crossed several varieties to create a disease-resistant grape; it was introduced to Texas by researchers at Texas A&M and growers who persisted with it, leading to its current status as the number one planted white grape in the state due to its resilience and versatility.
A Conversation at Torr Na Lochs with Blake DeBerry and Colby O'Brien
Q: Tell me about Torr Na Lochs and how you got started in the Hill Country.
Blake and Colby describe retiring to the Hill Country after international experiences, building a vineyard from the ground up, and naming Torr Na Lochs to honor time in Scotland, with a focus on handcrafting estate wines and growing Texas-grown fruit.
