When pruning canes, it's crucial to avoid cutting past the crown on one-year-old canes and limit cuts to no more than twice the diameter of the wood on canes two years or older to prevent dieback into the cordon, trunk, or graft union. Here's a video...

Still feeling grateful (and a little blown away) after our latest James Suckling tasting. “Their micro-production reds and whites… were eye-opening and barrier-breaking.” That kind of encouragement means the world to us. He also called our 2022 Robert Clay Vineyards Chardonnay the best white wine in this Texas report, and highlighted the depth and promise of our 2021 Bordeaux-style reds. We're proud of what these old vines and long barrel aging can do when you let the vineyard speak.

Huge thank-you to Jim Gordon and James Suckling for the continued support, and for helping shine a light on Texas Hill Country, especially the Hickory Sands District. You can see all of our scores, and the rest of the Texas wines reviewed, at JamesSuckling.com.

These wines will be released through our allocation: a small, once-a-year offering for collectors and restaurant partners. Because Robert Clay Vineyards is truly micro-production, allocation lets us share the wines fairly and directly with the people who believe in this vineyard and this story. To learn how allocation works and request one of the few remaining limited spots, head to RobertClayVineyards.com.
