Jackie Mancuso, vineyard manager for Atlas Vineyard Management joins me for this episode. Jackie and her teams were responsible for a lot of the grapes that were harvested in the Hill Country this year. We talk viticulture - including differences in Texas and California (where she’s from), disease pressures, picking rootstock, irrigation philosophy, and more.But first, the Texas wine news. Texas Monthly has released the winners of this year’s Vintners Cup, the 37th annual GrapeFest has just concluded and People’s Choice winners announced, and there are a couple of new places opening around the state that you might want to check out.Thanks for joining me on this Texas wine journey! Cheers y'all.
