McPherson Cellars, Texas High Plains (Texas) 2018

Jan 27, 2020

By Robert Whitley

 Winemaker Kim McPherson is something of a Rhone specialist, embracing the grape varieties of southern France with an extraordinary passion.  His Les Copain white wine, a blend of Marsanne, Picpoul, Viognier and Roussanne is true to form and consistent from vintage to vintage despite the vagaries of Texas weather.  Restrained and subtle aromas of peach, apricot, melon and citrus flow from the glass of the well-balanced and inexpensive beauty.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
