I’m enjoying NY steak with potato salad and a bottle of Mission Cab from Fall Creek Vineyards in Driftwood TX. If my wife isn’t home in 10 minutes. She’s SOL on the wine. It’s a commemorative Cabernet honoring the heroes of the Alamo. The grapes are grown on land once owned by COL William Travis.

Driftwood is special: a town of 300 that hosts several vineyards and several awesome restaurants, to include Salt Lick BBQ. It’s about 30 miles East of Austin.

Apologies for the double post. The cab is a bargain at $30 a bottle. Member discount takes it down to $21 a bottle. Their GSM blend is to die for. Thanks

I had a nice tagliatelle with traditional bolognese, and a chiante. It was beautiful.

Back in the old days when I used to go there, the Salt Lick was west of Austin...
