SUMMARY:Celebrate International Merlot Day: A Toast to Texas Wine
DESCRIPTION:Raise a Glass toInternational Merlot Day\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery year on November 7th\, wine lovers unite to celebrate International Merlot Day—a day dedicated to honoring one of the world’s most approachable\, versatile red wines. Merlot is beloved for its smooth texture\, fruity flavors\, and broad appeal\, making it an ideal choice for both casual wine drinkers and seasoned enthusiasts. This year\, what better way to celebrate than with the award-winning Bingham Family Vineyards 2019 Merlot\, a standout from Texas’ up-and-coming wine scene? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrder Six bottles to have Shipping included\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMerlot’s Signature Charm\n\n\n\nMerlot has long been appreciated for its rich\, fruit-forward flavors. Named after the French word for “blackbird” (a nod to its deep\, dark color)\, Merlot often carries notes of ripe plum\, cherry\, and blackberry\, with hints of chocolate\, vanilla\, or even spice. While it’s famously used in Bordeaux blends\, Merlot shines on its own too. Depending on where it’s grown\, Merlot can range from soft and light-bodied to bold and structured\, making it a wonderfully versatile wine that can appeal to many palates. \n\n\n\nMerlot’s accessibility is a major part of its charm. It’s smooth\, with gentle tannins\, making it easy to sip on its own or pair with a wide variety of foods. From charcuterie boards and roast chicken to rich pasta dishes and chocolate desserts\, Merlot’s balance of acidity and fruitiness makes it a reliable partner at the table. \n\n\n\nTexas Merlot: A Growing Star\n\n\n\nTexas may not be the first place you think of when it comes to wine\, but its unique terroir has produced some truly impressive bottles in recent years. The Texas High Plains\, with its sunny days and cool nights\, provides ideal conditions for grape growing\, and Merlot thrives here. Bingham Family Vineyards\, one of the state’s leading producers\, has perfected the art of Texas winemaking. Their 2019 Merlot captures the heart of Texas with its lush flavors of cherry\, plum\, and a touch of oak. \n\n\n\nThe Bingham Family Vineyards 2019 Merlot has earned its accolades\, such as Texas Reserve Class Champion at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo\, for a reason. This wine offers a balance of vibrant fruit\, smooth tannins\, and an elegant finish\, making it a true delight for Merlot lovers. It’s a great pick for celebrating International Merlot Day\, giving you a taste of Texas craftsmanship and innovation. \n\n\n\nHow to Celebrate International Merlot Day\n\n\n\nOn this Merlot-themed day\, why not gather friends for a tasting? Try comparing Merlots from different regions\, such as Bordeaux\, California\, and Texas\, to explore how terroir influences the flavor profile. Or\, if you’re cooking up a meal\, pair it with a bottle of Merlot. The Bingham Family Vineyards 2019 Merlot is a fantastic choice that pairs well with dishes like grilled lamb\, mushroom risotto\, or dark chocolate desserts. \n\n\n\nMerlot Day is a perfect excuse to enjoy a great glass of wine\, appreciate its history\, and explore something new. So\, grab a bottle of Merlot—perhaps the Bingham Family Vineyards 2019—and raise a glass to this beloved grape that has captivated the world over. Cheers to Merlot! \n\n\n\nBlessings\,Betty

SUMMARY:Tempranillo Day 2024
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating Tempranillo Day: A Tribute to Spain’s Iconic Grape—and Texas’ Rising Star\n\n\n\nTempranillo Day is a fantastic time for wine lovers to celebrate the bold flavors and heritage of this classic Spanish grape. Known for its versatility\, Tempranillo is widely revered in its home country of Spain\, where it forms the backbone of Rioja and Ribera del Duero wines. This annual celebration\, championed by TAPAS (Tempranillo Advocates\, Producers\, and Amigos Society)\, can be marked on November 9th or on International Tempranillo Day\, observed on the second Thursday in November. This year that would be the 14th. For more on these dates\, Wine Folly offers insights on the history and spread of Tempranillo worldwide\, including here in the United States at Wine Folly or read her two minutes summary. \n\n\n\n\n\nTempranillo: From Spain to Texas\n\n\n\nTempranillo is celebrated for its deep red fruit flavors\, earthiness\, and hints of tobacco and spice. Wine Folly describes it as a “medium- to full-bodied wine with rich\, ruby color and balanced tannins\,” a profile that makes it well-suited for various cuisines and occasions. While its roots are in Spain\, Tempranillo has also thrived in Texas\, where it’s crafted into wines that bring a unique perspective to this heritage grape. Texas’ sunny climate and high-elevation vineyards in the Texas High Plains allow the grape to develop its signature richness and complexity. \n\n\n\nTexas Tempranillo has been gaining recognition\, showcasing that this classic grape can thrive outside of Spain’s borders. One standout example is the 2019 Bingham Family Vineyards Tempranillo\, which highlights the rich potential of Texas terroir. Known for our dedication to sustainable farming and high-quality winemaking\, Bingham Family Vineyards captures the essence of Tempranillo\, giving it a Texas twist. \n\n\n\nWe are also well know for our Tempranillo red wine blend call Dirt Farmer. Our 2019 Dirt Farmer has been a top favorite with our customers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBingham Family Vineyards 2019 Tempranillo: A Texas Gem\n\n\n\nThe Bingham Family Vineyards 2019 Tempranillo is an excellent choice for Tempranillo Day. This vintage expresses the balance of bold fruit\, earthiness\, and smooth tannins that Tempranillo lovers seek\, with flavors of ripe cherry\, plum\, and subtle spice. Crafted from Texas High Plains grapes\, it carries a distinctly Texan character\, with a vibrancy and structure that make it perfect for pairing with a variety of foods. \n\n\n\nBingham Family Vineyards has earned a solid reputation for producing wines that truly represent the Texas terroir as our 2019 Tempranillo stands out for its depth and smooth finish\, capturing the spirit of Texas viticulture and the essence of Tempranillo itself. \n\n\n\n\n\nHow to Celebrate Tempranillo Day\n\n\n\nWhether you celebrate on November 9th or the second Thursday in November\, there are many ways to enjoy Tempranillo: \n\n\n\n\nHost a Tempranillo Tasting: Compare Tempranillos from different regions—Spain\, Texas\, and California—to experience how terroir influences the grape’s profile. The 2019 Bingham Family Vineyards Tempranillo is an ideal addition\, bringing a bold Texan interpretation to the lineup.\n\n\n\nPrepare a Spanish-Inspired Feast: Tempranillo is a natural match for Spanish cuisine\, including tapas like chorizo\, jamón\, and Manchego cheese. Make it a night to honor Tempranillo’s origins with these classic dishes.\n\n\n\nPair with Texas-Style BBQ: For a Texan twist\, pair Bingham’s Tempranillo with smoky BBQ or grilled meats. The wine’s boldness and structure hold up well to rich flavors.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTempranillo Day is an opportunity to appreciate not just the history of this remarkable grape but also its exciting potential in new wine regions like Texas. So raise a glass of Tempranillo\, whether it’s from Rioja or the Texas High Plains\, and celebrate the legacy and future of this exceptional grape. Cheers to Tempranillo!Blessings\,Betty
